Aspire is an 8 day low impact course.

Jackie:

“What an unbelievable and inspiring week it has been for me. The best thing I’ve done in my life… There is something special about the ethos and location of Outward Bound which makes it a very special place. It encourages you to overcome fears and discover untapped potential.”

Rebecca:

“This has proven to be a moment in time that has changed some of my thinking, made me appreciate what I have and given true value to the life we have… The journey that I took renewed belief in myself, and reminded me that there is “no I in team”. As I am now Outward Bound and living life in the real world I only hope my belief can benefit others.”

Annette:

"I would like to take this opportunity to say a heartfelt thank you to you for providing the scholarship for a place on the Aspire Outward Bound course. When I was contacted to say that I was on the course I suddenly had huge apprehension about coming as I have a very weak left leg which gives out on me under physical exertion. My family thought I was crazy even applying, but my philosophy on life is that you can't hold back, you just have to go for it so I thought I would give it my best shot and if it was too tough I would deal with it then. However, I needn't have worried. The instructors have been amazing. They know a couple of us have trouble walking long distances so they provided us with walking poles and there hasn't been anything I haven't been able to do. Physically there have been times when the body is screaming to stop but with sheer determination I have kept going and finished the task. If I can scale a rock wall twice, then nothing will stop me taking on any challenge life gives me. When you have lead a very active life and suddenly lose some of your physical strength it is a great loss of confidence, but the Aspire course gives you the tools to take charge of your life again and that anything can be possible. Once again thank you so much for this wonderful opportunity. I will be spreading the word on what an amazing place Outward Bound is."
