Welcome
At My Big Adventure we pride ourselves in our ability to use the outdoors therapeutically through adventurous activities. We skillfully blend coaching, counselling and alternative-education with adventure to design experiences that help our clients change for the better.Since 1988 our passion has been helping people get the best out of themselves: Especially those who might otherwise have few chances to discover the joy of achievement and who are at risk of reaching adult life unaware of their potential. We primarily work with disaffected young people who are usually not attending school and for whom education, skills, knowledge and learning have little significance. We support this work by providing adventure-based training and activities to other organizations and individuals such as Senior Management Training, Adult Coaching, and Instructor Training.
My Big Adventure is incorporated as a Community Interest Company, which means we are officially a not-for-profit company. Rather than split our profits among shareholders and directors any surplus money we make is re-invested for the benefit of the section of the community we work with, namely disaffected young people at risk. See www.socialenterprise.org.uk or www.businesslink.gov.uk and type Community Interest Company into their search box to find out more about this type of business. Everything we do supports our work with children and young people. The Senior Management Training, Adult Coaching and Instructor Training are provided by our sister company Research, Education and Business Systems (REBS), which provides equipment and logistical support to My Big Adventure CIC. ![]() |
We have opportunities for instructors and trainee instructors.

The naughtiest boy in year 9.
Can you do something with him?
'R was a bright but disaffected pupil at risk, lacking direction and an outlet for his considerable energy. R joined me for a week's residential work experience and consequently took up rock climbing, something he then developed to winning competitions and climbing at an international standard.
Channeling his talents for positive outcomes has led R to considerable successes in life including a place at Oxford University.'
