Hamsterley Forest

While at the weekends we have been running Leadership Management and Survival Weekends during the week we have been running Cycle tours for the NHS Get Active Team. Last week we took a

tour through Hamsterley Forest. The Fourth most scenic road in the UK runs through there and we all cycled it and it truely is beautiful.

Leadership Management and Survival

For the last three weeks we have been running Leadership Management and Survival weekends in a variety of locations from Gloustershire on our training grounds to London school grounds for St Augustine's priory. The girls have really embrassed living off the land and built amazing shelters which they have slept in. They have also been catching, plucking, gutting then roasting pheasent and skinning rabbits then roasting them in rose hip syrup foraged from the wild. There was of course time for some play as they had a go on diggers and tractors on our land and some horse riding too!

Escorting School Girls up Craig Cau in North Wales

Somehow we managed to shoe horn in a trip to North Wales and climbed Craig Cau with the girls from St Augustine's priory in London. They did really well and Chris carried the safety kit and helped them with navigation and supported them when they needed help. The girls did really well and enjoyed themselves very much. On the second day we visited a Mountain Rescue centre and received demonstrations on rescue techniques and the routines and mobilisitaion that exists with these centres. Thrills and Skills for Life constantly learn new safety points and strive to be as safe as possible in any event.

Running Walking Tours for the NHS

We were recently asked to run a coastal walk in Sunderland for the NHS. It was a fantastic success and had a large turnout of people

in a broad age range, all of whom were keen to enjoy the splendid views and get or keep fit in an enjoyable and relaxing way. As you can see the views were just fantastic and everyone enjoyed themselves.

Trailfinding, Working with Schools in Durham, Preps for survival course

This week we have been more busy than our usual busy selves. We have been finding new trails along the Wear dale way for the Get Active NHS team and are working towards a book of routes for the NHS to help keep people active. These routes are a variety of gentle, adventurous, scenic and fast. Chris took a group on the Wear Dale way route and it was very much enjoyed with beautiful rivers and waterfalls, Angus bulls and cows and finishing in the lovely village of Willington.

We have also been working with primary

schools to teach them safe cycling for life. Increasing confidence, ability and above all safety on cycles are vital for young people, but, also the promotion of bike use to keep the countries future generation healthy.

Whilst all this has been going on we have been preparing for the survival and living off the land weekend course we are running this weekend for St Augustine's Priory Girls School in our training grounds in Dursley, near Gloucester.
