The Youth Adventure Trust has been using outdoor adventure to inspire young lives since 1992. Since we began, we have helped over 4,000 vulnerable young people aged 11 – 16 years old. We know that our long term early intervention programme has made a massive difference to the young people who have taken part, and in 2019 we increased the number of places available from 80 to 120 each year.
Our Impact
"My son has been given a chance by you, a platform to experience, grow, develop and feel like he belonged"
Charlie’s teachers were worried he was starting to make poor choices which was impacting on his concentration and attitude. Time away on our programme gave Charlie the chance to use his skills as a leader to help others, and to learn to use his energy and abilities positively.
