In the second week of the Easter half term some of the young people took part in an activities and development programme at Hindleap Warren, an outdoor activity centre run by London Youth.
We began the week by doing an outdoor obstacle course and a forest walk to discover more about the Ashdown forest. Our instructor showed us ways of making fire using materials around us:
... And shared myths and stories about the forest...
We then went on to try out the zip wire:
First hurdle was climbing onto the platform and after that it was a case of mustering the courage to jump off.
The zip wire was so much fun and everyone supported each other to face their fears and enjoy the activity.
The next day we went out into the forest to do some rock climbing, it was a beautiful day in a picturesque setting. We all got our harnesses on and set up our safety ropes and we were off...
We all supported and encouaged each other to accomplish new highs.
