About Us

Learn Outdoors is proud to be one of the UK’s leading Duke of Edinburgh’s Award expedition providers and an Approved Activity Provider (AAP). We work with thousands of young people across the country, delivering high-quality, tailor-made walking expeditions for schools and groups across England and Wales.

We are proud to be among the UK’s first, largest and most trusted AAPs, with decades of experience supporting schools and youth organisations. Our directors, Philip and Sarah, bring 60 years of combined DofE expertise, supported by a dedicated team of both office and instructional staff who are here to guide you every step of the way.

At Learn Outdoors, we provide full, national Bronze, Silver and Gold expedition services, including all expedition logistics (route guidance, campsite bookings, training resources, fully qualified instructors, course directors, accredited assessors, etc). We tailor our programmes to meet your needs, we have an excellent safety record and consistent, wonderful feedback from repeat clients who trust us year after year.

Our events are designed to be fun, educational and safe, and are led by a team of highly qualified, professional instructors. And, what’s more, we love it! The outdoors is our passion, and we put our heart and soul into giving every participant the best possible experience.

We also run bushcraft and other outdoor training courses through our Wilderness Project and first aid training through our WP First Aid organisation.
