In October, Bernice Flack, a member of our Foundation, met with Jon Cox, Founder and Director and Wayne Solomon, Instructor, along with the rest of the Adventure Plus team.
Adventure Plus has been a leader in providing quality adventure experiences to children for over 30 years. Founded in 1990 by Jon and Tessa Cox, Adventure Plus offers adventure holidays, school residential programmes, Duke of Edinburgh expeditions, team-building events and a variety of other inspiring activities for young people and adults throughout Oxfordshire and across the UK. The mission of Adventure Plus is to help children and young people reach their potential, make positive life choices and enjoy enriching experiences in the great outdoors.
A specialised unit of Adventure Plus, known as Adventure Impact (AIm), works with children who are excluded or at risk of exclusion from mainstream education. Young people are referred individually by schools, social services, or Pupil Referral Units (PRUs) and organisations supporting young people with learning disabilities and childhood trauma.
Our grant will enable Adventure Plus to purchase two Infento kits, one Legend kit and one Genius kit, for use with all AIm participants. Infento is the first in the world to create a kit that enables children and adults to work together to build real constructible rides and provide opportunities for young people to develop important skills in critical thinking, problem solving and teamwork.
