Youth work sessions and residentials with Lupine Adventure Co-operative

 

Rock ClimbingThe members of Lupine Adventure Co-operative are available to help supervise a variety of youth work in the outdoors. We can run sessions, alongside your youth workers, or attend residentials, providing qualified supervision of

  • Rock Climbing
  • Abseiling
  • Hiking
  • Wild Camping.

 

We can usually supply all the equipment that is required. As well as all the walking and camping equipment listed on the Equipment Stores page, we have enough the climbing equipment to run sessions with up to 12 participants.

 

As we have members in Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Cumbria and North Wales we can keep our travel costs to a minimum by using our staff closest to the activity.

Our rates are extremely reasonable, our starting prices are listed below. However, please call or e-mail us for an accurate quote as the cost of sessional work will depend a lot on the size of the group, the length of the day and the location of the activity.  All listed prices are for one member of Lupine staff.

Our Ratios

Rock climbing

Our Rock climbing session ratio is 8:1. I.e one Lupine staff member to 8 participants (including your staff). If you have a (SPA) trained member of staff then we can increase that ratio to 12:1:1.

Group Work Feedback

Good rapport with the whole group, very friendly and educational. Made safety briefing fun and informal. Nature points were awarded for interesting observations. It was clear that there was real enthusiasm for the outdoors and this was infectious.

Well prepared and equipped for different conditions and problems. Had alternative plans for bad weather or when one asthmatic in the group found that their inhaler was not working properly. As it happened by keeping the pace slow and offering to carry their rucksack we made it to the top of Scafell Pike without using the alternatives.

Good balance between the majority of the group who had a faster pace and two slower members who tended to lag behind. Frequent rests were arranged to keep the group together. At no time did we feel rushed even though it took us much longer than expected.
