Taking part in adventure activities will allow each person their own individual challenge, an opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors, and benefit both physically and mentally from the experience. Our programmes have been designed to allow everyone, regardless of ability, to enhance their skills, confidence, performance and knowledge through engaging in embracing activities.
Regardless if you are an elite athlete, someone wishing to gain further skills and knowledge for outdoor awards, or someone suffering with any form of physical or mental illness, Extreme Outdoors are here to listen to your needs. Designed to promote confidence and help accelerate physical, psychological and social improvements, our focus is on what you can do, not what you can't.
Just treading into the great outdoors is the first step to improving your wellbeing. By providing our experiences, to individuals, businesses and charities, we strive to meet the needs of each participant, adapting to changing conditions and individual motivations and goals. This will be achieved whilst managing, controlling and exploiting risks, to help support learning and development during their exposure in the great outdoors.
Led by our founder, Sip Powers, we work with participants to prove that there are no boundaries to what individuals can achieve, if they put their mind to it and truly believe in themselves. With a proud military service spanning over thirty years, Sip has worked with some extraordinary and inspirational groups of people, both in peace time and on operations, that journey now continuing into a new phase, supporting others to believe and take steps to recovery.
Awarded national recognition for his charity and fundraising initiatives and gaining professional mountaineer status, all activities from us are managed by safe hands. With over a decade of adaptative adventure training experience working with BattleBack, we have the knowledge and experience to assist with rehabilitation to enable participation in meaningful and challenging recreational activities catered on individual needs. We aim to emphasise each persons abilities and promote safe and careful adaptation, be it physical or psychological wellbeing.
Just treading into the great outdoors is the first step to improving your mental health and wellbeing. As an ambassador for Combat Stress, the country's leading charity for veterans mental health, we are acutely aware of issues like post-traumatic stress disorder, anxiety and depression, supporting former servicemen and women through complex mental health issues related to military service. By providing our services and dedicating our time to fundraising, we strive to give back and really make a difference to those who need us.
