Cotswolds Outdoor Fun
Cotswolds

Are you aged 10 to 15, home educated and want to spend more time outdoors? This is a fun opportunity for those who have additional needs to have a ‘short break’ and try something new, like bushcraft or low ropes! If you’re not sure and have any worries, chat to your parent or carer and get in touch for more info. 

World Jungle and Cotswolds National Landscape are being supported by Active Impact and Gloucestershire County Council to provide an opportunity for young people who have additional needs and/or disabilities to spend time with other young people and have fun outdoors! 

This new pilot project is aimed at supporting young people (10-15) who are home-educated and have additional needs to spend time out of the house and meet other young people their age. World Jungle and Cotswolds National Landscape youth workers will encourage and support young people to relax and socialise, whilst enjoying the Cotswolds countryside. Sessions will include fun activities, such as bushcraft, low ropes, and a zipwire. Young people will have the opportunity to shape the sessions going forward. 

The first sessions will be held at Deerpark Activity Centre, Cowley, due to the cold weather and darker days. Future session will move increasingly outdoors as the weather improves! The sessions are taking place fortnightly on a Wednesday, 10-2pm. The first session will be February 5th 2025. 

This new opportunity is not a replacement for educational provision, it is an opportunity to have fun, make friends, relax, and try new things. 

We can make many accommodations, please talk to us to let us know what you need to enable your young person to take part.
