YOUR PERSONALISED ACTIVITY DAY

9:30 - 16:30 (or to suit your itinerary)

ARRIVE AT THE ADVENTURE HUB OR MEET AT THE FIRST ACTIVITY

We can meet at the Adventure Hub where your instructor will welcome you and discuss the aims of the course and you own aspirations over a great cup of fresh Italian coffee or tea. Alternatively If it suits your itinerary we can meet you at a predefined location at a time to suit you.

COLLECT AND CHECK YOUR EQUIPMENT

You will be sized up for any required equipment. All you need to do is check your clothing is suitable for the conditions and check that your rucksack is suitably packed with snacks and drink.

TRAVEL TO ACTIVITY LOCATION

The exact location will depend on the weather and the aims and activities selected by the group. Typically this is a 15 minute drive from The Adventure Hub. A short walk to the first activity will follow.

ACTIVITY SESSIONS

Each activity will be introduced along with a lesson in how to be safe and use the required equipment. Your instructor will always be on hand to keep things on track but will step back to allow the group to operate independently when appropriate. We will rotate round the chosen activities throughout the day as we journey around the area by car or by foot, stopping for lunch and refreshments at a suitable time.

BACK TO THE ADVENTURE HUB OR ONWARD TO YOUR NEXT DESTINATION

Once we are finished we will return to the car and either return to The Adventure Hub for coffee or send you on your way to your next destination.

• Clothing suited to the weather (waterproofs, warm tops, etc)
  
• Sturdy, comfortable footwear (lightweight walking boots are ideal)
• A good supply of snacks and a drink (we can arrange a packed lunch from a fantastic local deli if required)
• Sun cream, hat and sunglasses (you just never know!)

• Our well-equipped training centre, The Adventure Hub, is Carbon Neutral.
• We encourage car sharing wherever feasible.
• We encourage the use of public transport on all our courses. Bamford Railway Station is 5 minutes' walk and we enjoy direct bus connections to Sheffield and nearby villages.
• We offer free camping kit for guests staying locally and looking to cut down on luggage.
• Our staff are trained to prolong the life of equipment used on this course, where it is possible to recycle equipment at the end of its life, we do so appropriately.
• We operate in small teams at low ratios to reduce our impact on the venues we use and other countryside users.

• The physical and mental benefits of outdoor activities are numerous and well documented, we firmly believe that those benefits should be available to as many people as possible.

• If you are interested in experiencing any of our activities but feel unable to do so then please contact us to discuss your specific needs, we will always try to find a solution that works for you.

• There are a range of simple adaptions we can make to our scheduled courses such as choosing venues with minimal walking or easy access to toilet facilities, providing cold storage facilities for temperature sensitive medications, allowing additional time or arranging for participants to be accompanied by a trusted aide.

• When participation as part of an open group isn't appropriate we can arrange private tuition. This allows for a more tailored approach and a much wider range of adaptions such as assisted climbing and abseiling techniques for participants with significant physical or mobility issues.

• If private tuition is unaffordable then we can sometimes offer subsidised places to bring the price back in line with our scheduled courses .These are provided by the Pure Outdoor Foundation whose goal is to bring as many people as possible into the outdoors, please enquire about availability.

• Clear communication before the activity is crucial so, as well as telephone and email conversations, we can also arrange to meet participants directly at a venue days or weeks beforehand to identify any specific barriers and begin addressing any anxieties.
