Recipient Org: Description The EOBA’s Mission is to "unlock the potential in young people and young carers, through learning and adventure in the open countryside". Our objective is to provide for the public benefit, the personal development of young people and young carers, by education and instruction through participation in a wide variety of activities, with special emphasis on physical endeavour in the outdoors. The Essex Outward Bound Association (EOBA) which is affiliated to the Outward-Bound Trust (OBT) offers financial support to young people and young carers from Essex, who would not be able to fund these activities themselves, to attend Outdoor activities at an Outward-Bound Trust Centre in Ullswater (Cumbria). The Outward-Bound Trust, to which the EOBA is affiliated, is an educational charity that develops young people through learning and adventure in the wild. They work in partnership with schools, colleges and youth groups across the UK, delivering courses that are tailored to meet participants needs, developing skills and qualities that enable them to thrive in education, work and life. As a charity they also work with funders to provide financial support so that all young people can access the experience, whatever their circumstances. Since 1941, they have provided young people with vital opportunities to develop skills and qualities that unlock their potential. Research they have conducted over many years has shown that their approach is effective in developing young people. Learning in the outdoors provides direct and practical experiences that cannot be achieved within a traditional classroom setting and leaning through adventure provides experience of risk-taking in a safe environment. These skills are transferred back to school, where they help pupils become more confident, enthusiastic and effective learners. The trust delivers very focussed courses with a high level of interaction between the instructor and pupils which means that the course can be tailored to meet individual and specific needs.
