What we'll do
Based at our very own site in the heart of Thetford Forest, you will be able to try a range of water based activities including Stand up Paddle boarding, Canoeing or Raft Building on our own stretch of river. Working in teams and completing challenges will strengthen bonds and give you the opportunity to try new and exciting activities that you may not have experienced before. A hot or cold lunch will be provided for you and you will be encouraged to help prepare the food and make healthy choices for yourself. This session is open to children and young people aged 8 to 16. All skill levels are catered to, and our activity co-ordinators will make sure everyone feels safe enough to get involved. Please let us know if your child has any additional requirements so we can ensure we have the correct staffing levels to optimise their experience.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
