13-17s Multi-activity course

Date: Monday 12 - Friday 16 Aug 2024
Location: Lake District

Whatever your level of injury, you’ll have the chance to try out a range of outdoor activities including canoeing and kayaking, climbing and abseiling, sailing and hand cycling.

The course is held at the Calvert Trust in the Lake District and they have lots of experience of running courses for people who use a wheelchair or may need a bit more support.

Our courses are a great opportunity to try new things, meet other people your age with a spinal cord injury and have some fun!

Back Up relies on the generosity of individuals and companies to fund our programme of courses. Each year we ask all course participants to make a suggested donation towards their course place.

We do understand however that everyone’s circumstances are different so making a full donation isn’t always possible. Please don’t ever let money concerns stop you from applying for one of our courses. We never allocate or refuse a course space based on your ability to make a donation.
