Recipient Org: Description The Isle of Skye, with its fantastic landscape and inspiring scenery has been our main base of operations and we have run residential courses on the island and neighbouring Raasay since 2001. In the intervening years we have built up a successful record of offering disadvantaged young people the chance to participate in outdoor adventurous activities and discover more about their own abilities and the advantages of working with others to achieve a successful outcome. We have seen how providing them with a variety of activities in small groups, accommodated in a sympathetic and supportive residential environment, can give new practical and social skills, while significantly improving their self-confidence. At the same time it engenders a more positive outlook on their own individual lives and often better equips them to play a more significant role in their own communities. Through well structured, but still relaxed courses, we have found we can help improve the health and well-being of these young people. When they return home this can result in important changes in what they do and how they do it to the benefit of their local community. We believe strongly in helping to make this difference and want to continue to achieve it with as many young people as possible. In 2019, subject to funding, we anticipate holding residential stays on the Isle of Skye, at Loch Tay and in the spectacular surroundings of Glencoe. These will take place from Easter through July and August. All have been organised during traditional school holidays in order not to impact on the education and attendance records of the young participants.
