Why We’ve Introduced Seasonal Pricing for Short Breaks

When we set out on our very first short break, we had no idea just how much the breaks would grow and how popular they would become.


Back then, it was a handful of Adventurers, a couple of tents, and a big idea: that time spent outdoors could help people achieve their potential.


Fast forward a few years, and we’ve now delivered over 50 short breaks for more than 100 Adventurers, each one building confidence, independence, and lifelong memories.


In 2025, we’re running 24 short breaks. And in 2026, that number grows again, to 30 weekends packed with outdoor adventure, new challenges, and big steps towards becoming independent adults.

For 2026, we’ve also introduced brand-new activities, including some that require qualified external instructors to deliver.


These are the kinds of experiences that help build confidence, independence, and real-life skills and we can't wait for the Adventurers to get outside and experience actitives that aren't always available in the day service.


However, as is the case with most things, increasing what we offer does come with an increase in cost.


Venues are charging more. Staffing and transport costs have gone up. And running this many weekends to the high standard we set for ourselves, means we’ve had to look at how we structure our pricing.


That’s why, from 2026, we’re introducing a seasonal pricing structure.


This allows us to keep offering great value year-round, while also balancing the reality of higher running costs during the busiest months of the year.


Here’s how it works:


  • Breaks from January to March: £675 (plus £725 for 1:1 support if required)

  • Breaks from April to September: £725 (plus £725 for 1:1 support)

  • Breaks from October to December: £675 (plus £725 for 1:1 support)


So we’ve got a winter season (Jan - Mar and Oct - Dec) and a summer season in the middle.


This structure means we can continue delivering the same high-quality experiences, even during the months when our costs rise most.


You’ll find a full breakdown of our 2026 dates, along with prices for each, below.

With 30 weekends available, 2026 offers more opportunities than ever for Adventurers to join us, whether it’s their very first short break or their 50th.

Take a peak into what our short break weekends actually look like 👀

We’ve brought back big activities like abseiling, introduced exciting new locations for weaselling, and added experiences that simply couldn’t happen during the day service.


These are weekends built to challenge, support, and inspire all year round.


And while prices have gone up to reflect the scale of what we’re offering, we’re still focused on delivering brilliant value.


Every short break is packed with high-quality, meaningful adventure, and we’ve structured the pricing to keep it accessible, even as demand grows.


We’re proud of what’s coming in 2026. It’s our biggest year yet, and we can't wait for you to come and adventure with us!
