We are a charity that believes that every young person living in darkness, deserves to find their true spirit. Inspiration through exploration. 

WHAT WE DO

We work with young people who feel invisble. Whether impacted by bullying, bereavement and/or trauma we turn them into resilient role models.

Our eighteen-month programme takes kids through intensive physical and mental training and includes an Arctic winter sledge haul. The extreme challenge allows young people to realise their full potential. By showing them what they are capable of, this experience permanently improves their self-belief.

WHY WE DO IT

We select schools, kids and families that are 100% committed to our one year, proven training programme.

It is uniquely based on expertise from the military, child protection, physical education, business leadership, health and safety and medicine.

The final expedition in the Arctic, one of Earth’s last true wildernesses, where the kids discover who they really are and what they are truly capable of.

Every graduate then goes on to speak to over 3,000 peers to inspire them, through exploration.
