A group of Cumbrian youngsters experienced their first ever outdoor residential in the heart of the Lake District.
Find out how it happened and how the residential was entirely geared to meet the group’s needs.
YMCA Lakeside course director Jay sums up the value of an experience: “The outdoors gives everyone a chance to shine, especially those who might not in a typical classroom. Whether it’s climbing a crag, lighting their first fire, or navigating back from a walk – there’s something about achieving things out here that sticks with people. It builds pride, independence, and a real sense of connection – not just to the place, but to each other.”
