Activity Directory
This Directory is a guide for Award Leaders, participants and parents/guardians to use when considering options for completing the Adventurous Journey section. A provider on our website has been approved by the Award as meeting the sectional requirements of the Adventurous Journey. The directory does not guarantee the suitability of the provider in terms of health and safety, financial stability, or safeguarding. An Award Unit working with a provider will have their own process for checking the suitability of the provider’s programme in terms of health and safety requirements for their young people. Similarly, it is the responsibility of the participant’s parent/guardian/carer to evaluate the safeguarding and health and safety policies the organisation has in consultation with the organisation, if a participant is engaging directly with a provider. The Award does not endorse one provider over another but is providing this list as possible options for Award Units and participants to consider.
