These prices are for a package based around a group taking the expedition in The Yorkshire Dales, The North Yorkshire Moors, The Lake District or The Peak District. These prices do not include food, travel or campsite fees for the participants.
We understand that this single package may not fit your requirements.You may wish to opt for some of the following options.
- Residential training rather than on your premises.
- An expedition further afield in Snowdonia or Scotland (for example).
- Fewer (non safety critical) training sessions by our staff.
- Using a member of your staff or volunteer to part staff a trip.

All of our packages are designed to meet the requirements for the Duke of Edinburgh Award expedition.
There are a number of pots of money out there that can be accessed to enable young people to take part in the Duke of Edinburgh Award. If your budget will not stretch to the fees required we can supply you with information as to where you may get the funding.

If you think that you may have students who would benefit from achieving The Award but neither your organisation or the students can afford it then get in touch soon so we can investigate other more specific funding pools.
As an organisation we tick quite a few boxes that funders like. It may help to point out that the organisation that you are hiring to carry out the activity is a not-for-profit social enterprise.
