Adventure Beyond has been working with groups doing their Duke of Edinburgh Award since we were first set up in 1997.
We are an Approved Activity Provider through the Duke of Edinburgh Award as well as being an (AALA)Adventure Activities Licensing Authority approved centre.
We are specialists in canoeing, kayaking and walking expeditions, catering for all, from the total beginner who's never looked at a map and doesn't know how a tent is pitched, through to the more experienced groups looking to challenge themselves at Gold.

Training takes place at suitable venues, be it schools, hills, or rivers, depending on your expedition type and group location. We're sensitive to your schedules, especially considering that many DofE participants are in their exam years. Our goal is to seamlessly integrate training into your program.
