    Qualifier Journey

    An Independent Team Challenge

    Either an exploration or an expedition, the qualifier journey provides participants with the opportunity to put what they have learnt into practice as they continue to learn more about the wider environment, develop their self-confidence and improve their health.

  • Adventurous Journey Requirements

    The Adventurous Journey can be an exploration or an expedition, but must be a challenge. The Adventurous Journey provides Participants with the opportunity to learn more about the wider environment, as well as to develop their self-confidence, team work and health. Participants are taken out of their comfort zone through journeying through in an unfamiliar environment but are suitably trained and supervised to remain safe and secure.
