Choose your challenge!

We understand that every event is unique. We work with you to create a bespoke programme that is perfect for your needs.

We have a huge range of activities that we can bring to your event and our Trusted Partners can bring even more.

Some of the options we have for activities include:

Bush-Tucker Challenge

The headline activity and a firm favourite of the event photographer!

We can bring everything from tiny mealworms, to chubby locusts, right up to boiled tarantula!

All served with a grin... and a glass of water!

Fire Starting

Where there's smoke, there's fire! The classic and most important survival skill.

Adults and secondary school children take on the challenge of friction fire-lighting. No hot coffee until you've got the fire going using only wood, string, and your own muscles!

Younger years learn to light tinder using a sparking fire steel and build their fire around it.

Shelter Building

Building a home for you and your team is the third skill on the Survival Triangle. Using found materials and a bit of knowledge it's possible to create totally weatherproof shelter using one of three time-tested designs.

Teams can even plan on sleeping under their shelter, warmed only by their fire and their sleeping bags.

*Logan the German Shepherd not included.

Land Art

Perfect for younger years and families.

Create beautiful temporary pictures and sculptures using only what the landscape provides.

Then, make your own unique clay medallion to keep as a souvenir of an amazing day.

Water Purification

No-one is going to last long in the wild without a source of clean water.

This challenge involves building a purifying filter able to take-on the muddiest water The Outdoors People can make!

An essential first-step towards that all important morning coffee. Tea and hot chocolate options, also available!

Kin Ball

Play a range of exciting games with our giant inflatable Kin Ball.

Ideal for getting children and parents to scream and wearing out youngsters before bed!

Survival Bracelets

By weaving a beautiful survival bracelet you'll always have a survival tool to hand.

Strong cord is one of the most useful tools in the wild and our survival bracelets contain almost 18 metres of it!

Participants can choose their own colours or we can theme the colours for your event.

Survival Pendants

Use a Palaeolithic pump-drill to manufacture your own decorative pendant to keep.

You even make your own cord for the pendant to start that all important survival fire!

And more!

Safe knife work, axe carving, baking on an open fire. Our team of trained instructors holds a huge range of skills and knowledge and we can deliver any activity you can imagine.

Through our Trusted Partners we can also bring in many other exciting activities including archery, mobile climbing walls, caving systems, inflatables, and much more.
