team building

GROUND-BASED CHALLENGE

We recognise that high ropes and the more adventurous activities that we offer are not for everyone, but we are not just about challenge at height, a great deal of our offer is about keeping your feet firmly on ‘Terra Firma’. We can accommodate your needs, whether you are a school, a club or a corporate team. We are proud to say that our innovative team building activities and facilitation skills will always get you learning together and put a smile on your face.

OUR APPROACH

We do not preach, much better to let the activity do the talking and let you ‘do, review and apply’ or learn from your mistakes – this is what experiential learning is all about. Our tasks are simple to do but harder to do well – some tasks last for 10 minutes, others are more complex and require the skill and positive approach from everyone in the team. Most importantly, our tasks are active, full of laughter with outdoor learning at the heart.

OUR CHALLENGE KIT

Over the past 10 years we have designed and produced our own ‘Challenge Kit’. We use this for our tasks but kit and training is also available for you to purchase so that you can deliver your own programmes in your own spaces. Don’t forget we can always come to you if transport is difficult.

PROGRAMMES

Our team building activities form an essential component of any multi-activity day that we deliver to schools and other youth organisations. Lots of activities can be delivered by teachers onsite, under our close supervision. But don’t forget this is also for grown-ups, we love working with any age group, any ability.

THE CHALLENGES

Can you get the ball from A to B using the materials provided, can you walk the person on the ‘A-Frame’ through the ‘shark infested custard’? Some activities are tried and tested and some you won’t have ever experienced anywhere else. All challenges will get you smiling and you will always be inspired by others in your team.

our testimonials

customer says

Having worked with this client group personally, I really appreciate the employability courses that you have run and how beneficial they are to to the individuals; the impact has enabled our young people in custody to equip them with the skills to manage their own behaviours when facing a challenge or crisis Julie Cable - Head of Operations Shaw Trust

Through our Challenge Academy ‘Branching Out’ course students we were able to identify , control and work through the emotions to build resilience. encouraging each other and challenging each other appropriately emotional health of our students, they quickly learned the effect of teamwork in order to achieve successful outcomes and goals Marc Waters Wheels VLS

The Challenge Academy training and resources were not only a fantastic opportunity for us to develop our own team dynamic through the learning experience, but has provided us with some brilliant and targeted activities that have supported the personal development work we do with young people. The instructor made it interactive and relevant to the aims of our organisation and has enabled us to deliver a more robust service, this will have a direct impact upon the young people that we work with Jonathan Allen - Phase Trust

Having attended Challenge Academy with 20 Beaver Scouts today I can really recommend the venue and it’s team. All the instructors were attentive, supportive and fun. The activities were well set up, we felt safe and enjoyed the whole day. Our Beavers all went home with big smiles on their faces having achieved much more than they expected. Helen Perks - Beaver Volunteer

What a fantastic place! I would highly recommend Challenge Academy to anyone. Both my kids loved it with so much to do and something for all abilities. The staff are all super welcoming, helpful and friendly. We will definitely be back again. I loved the fact that you could view the kids on all the activities and get pictures. Also handy that the site is dog friendly. Chloe Drew - Facebook Review

The instructors are amazing and so encouraging when you have those occasional ‘I can’t do this’ moments! There are lots of them which means their organisation is second to none, safety is paramount and all this for a fantastically great value price! I didn’t know this place existed but I’ll be spreading the word, Thank you Challenge Academy! Windsor High School
