Whatever your level of injury, you get to try lots of outdoor activities like canoeing, horse riding and archery as well as swimming and having fun with new friends. You will come with a parent/adult guardian and we do have some spaces on the course for siblings so they get to meet other families who are in a similar situation to you. We run two Under 13s courses – one Calvert Trust in Exmoor and one at the Calvert Trust in the Lake District.
The Calvert Trust is an organisation with which we have a long relationship. It provides holidays and courses for lots of people who use a wheelchair or who may need a bit more support.
The adults and young people who lead the course have a spinal cord injury themselves so they will be able to share their life experiences with you.

Back Up relies on the generosity of individuals and companies to fund our courses. We invite participants to make a suggested donation towards the cost of their place, but please don’t let money concerns stop you from applying. Course places are never allocated or refused based on your ability to donate.
You can choose to make a one-off donation, or you may prefer to give a little each month. For example, a regular gift of £20 per month.
The following recommended donation is roughly a third of the actual cost of each space:
