Whether you’re heading off on a Scout trip, a Girlguiding adventure or a Brigades retreat, they all offer fantastic benefits for your units in your uniformed group, developing skills, socialising with others and much more!
The benefits of taking your uniformed group on an adventure trip
Your units are born adventurers! That’s why taking them on an adventure camp is perfect for them. It’s the perfect opportunity for them to have fun and make the most of the range of benefits that come with these trips.
Boost their confidence
A group trip with the rest of your unit is a great way to boost the confidence of your Scouts, Guides, Brownies, Cubs, Cadets, and Brigades. They’ll become confident with the rest of the group and build self-esteem as they take part in a variety of epic adventure activities!
Earn badges
Many adventure camps have the facilities and equipment available to help your units work towards earning their badges, including PGL! See how to earn badges at Scouts adventure camp with PGL. Whichever uniformed group you’re bringing to camp, we can always help you work towards badges, achievements and any other requirements.
Learn new adventure skills
A Scout trip, Guides trip or any other uniformed group trip is ideal for learning new skills. Whether they’re skills your group needs to earn badges, or simply learning other life skills, adventure camps offer it all!
Develop independence
An overnight adventure camp is one of the best experiences children can have for developing independence. It’s a chance to go somewhere new with their friends and unit leaders where they can spend a few days taking on responsibilities that parents might usually do at home, like choosing dinner, getting ready for the day and more.
Endless adventure fun
Most importantly, they’re so much fun. Growing up is all about new experiences and having fun, and that’s what we aim to provide for anybody who visits PGL. Exploring and adventuring is what we’re all about! We have lots of multi-activities that you can take part in with your units such as:
- Survivor
- Abseiling
- Climbing
- Swimming
- Canoeing
- Orienteering
- Archery
Make new friends
Looking for an adventure camp for your Scouts who have just progressed from Cubs? Or maybe you’re interested in helping your unit get to know each other more, or even mixing multiple units! Adventure camps are fantastic for this. Through a range of activities, spending time together in dormitories, at breakfast, lunch and dinner, your group have more time to build relationships with one another! It’s a place where new friendships can blossom and current relationships grow stronger.
