Youth Groups and Schools Activities in the Lake District.
Our Centre is ideal for schools and youth groups from primary school through to higher education. We offer a superb lakeshore location which benefits from stunning scenery, heated classroom, refreshment area, changing rooms, toilets, hot showers and parking.
Our team of Qualified Instructors are all very friendly, patient, good humoured, highly skilled and experienced.
Due to the environment in which outdoor centres operate today, all of our Risk and Operating policies are on going and dynamic, and our most recent Operations and Risk Assessment policies are available as a PDF on request.
Safety Boat cover and communications are statutory, as is all necessary safety equipment. If required we can help your group with your risk assessments and any other necessary paperwork you might have to complete.
