As the post pandemic drive to get back into the great outdoors continued and with travel accessible once again we were thrilled to support several groups and individuals to get across the line with their fundraising efforts to take on new adventures. Check out some of the PXRs from our grantees below.

British exploring society - yukon

We were very happy to support several young explorers join the British Exploring Society expedition to the Yukon. According to BES, “Led by experts, the expedition has been designed to take you out of your comfort zone in a challenging yet safe environment, with a real focus on the skills and personal development you will gain from the experience.”

One of the most rewarding parts of working with my group was being able to see others grow in confidence over the course of the expedition as they became more comfortable and proved to themselves that they could do things they didn’t think they could.

Another fantastic opportunity for a young adventurer to travel overseas to push themselves outside their comfort zone and develop themselves while helping a community in desperate need of support. You can read Jo’s post expedition report here.

I am indebted to the Get Exploring Trust for making this more accessible to me and allowing me to live through this experience and help those less well-off.
