Concerned with personal development, the courses are designed to develop personal and team work skills. They allow people to find out what they can do in totally different situations.
Most of the activities are outdoors and include a selection from canoeing, rock climbing, abseiling, orienteering, sailing and caving.
These courses provide a different sort of challenge. They are based in inner cities. They typically involve a placement in a hospital followed by a project with disabled people. Each evening there is a seminar where course members share their experiences and discuss the issues involved.
