Explore – Princes Trust
We are now recruiting for our free 5-week personal development course, Explore! Please see below for details.
Explore (16-25)
Explore is a personal development programme that offers young people a range of exciting activities and one-to-one support to help them build confidence, get motivated, meet new people, and work towards personal goals.
The programme commences with a 4-day access week consisting of outdoor-based activities to help build and stretch the participant’s comfort zones whilst developing key teamwork skills. Activities can include climbing, bushcraft, caving, and high ropes.
The remaining four weeks of the programme will consist of follow-on sessions. Throughout this period, participants will take part in an array of activities aimed at fostering independence, enhancing employability, and taking part in recreational activities, all while building on their teamwork abilities. Example follow-on activities can include cooking classes, conservation/nature days, well-being sessions, digital upskilling, art/creative workshops and many more. The culmination of these weeks will be marked by a celebration day that both recognises the progress made by participants but also serves as a platform to explore future opportunities beyond the program.
Each participant will be supported to complete an accredited Personal Development & Employability Qualification throughout the course.
