Multi-Activity Day Courses in Sussex

Good news! We are now in a position to start delivering on-site school activity days at Blackland Farm and expeditions again on behalf of the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. These are non residential but meet all the current guidelines for participants to complete their award – We can also bring these to you at school without the need for travel!

This is not a decision that has been taken lightly. We have been in constant consultation with our Professional Associations including the DofE, Adventure Activities Licensing Authority (AALA), the Institute for Outdoor Learning (IOL) and our insurance provider, Activities Industry Mutual (AIM).

Below is a sample program you might expect to have with us on a typical activity day. However, activity choices are up to you and can be personal to your requirements. 

Please don’t hesitate to contact us should you wish for more information!
