Activities.

The Urban Adventure Project - Residential holidays
We are committed to supporting schools in difficult areas to provide amazing and affordable residential holidays. This can vary from centre based activities to camping expeditions. Active Hope enables the schools to lower the costs involved through our bursary fund raising.

The Which Way Now Project
The WWN Project has been running in Warrington for 5 years now and over 1000 Primary School pupils have taken part. It is a 4 session programme that links outdoor sessions with classroom assemblies. The activities include Orienteering, Team Building games, Problem Solving activities and lots of fun! If you would like to recieve a WWN Project leaflet please email us your address and school.

Adventure Academy
Adventure Academy works in partnership with 12 Schools in the inner wards of Warrington to provide opportunities for children to participate in Outdoor Activities during their holidays. During 2010/2011 around  80 children took part in the project and, thanks to Active Hope Supporters, we were able to facilitate a weekend residential for all the children to Pensarn Harbour in Wales. Active Hope fundraises to enable this project to happen - it provides fantastic opportunities for the children - click on the videos link on the home page to see some of what happened.

Trainee Instructor Programme (Active Mentoring)
This programme works with boys of High School age and gives them an opportunity to receive basic training in some of the activities that we offer. They have the opportunity of practical work based placements with us working as part of our primary school projects.The aim of the project is to raise self esteem, provide new skills for the boys and motivate them for school. The boys are mentored throughout the Trainee Instructor Programme and records of their achievements are provided. It is an excellent opportunity for the boys and is proving very successful.

We have also run an international ski trip to Switzerland and hope to repeat this again in the future.

We have many plans for the future to expand and develop our work
