REMARKABLE EXPERIENCES AND ADVENTURES FOR ALL AGES, GROUPS AND ABILITIES

IN A NUTSHELL

Down to Earth Project is an award winning social enterprise with a 15 year track record (est. 2006) in supporting people to bring about positive change in their lives through meaningful outdoor activity. Every penny we earn goes to supporting our life-changing work and creating a brighter, better world.

Basically, it just so happens that being outdoors and actually doing sustainability is great for increasing quality of life and well-being … in other words, it helps you feel better about yourself… it also acts a stepping stone for re-engaging in learning through appropriate methods and it does “that zero-carbon/climate change mitigation/adaptation/sustainable development/global citizenship/ESDGC thing” without using abstract/difficult to get your head around language…

In other words, we get on with it, we try new things and sustainability is embedded throughout our entire approach… we offer a “solutions based approach”, and try to inspire change in the people we work with… through this approach, we support and engage people who are often ignored or who don’t fit the current educational/work/life model…

I leave each day feeling energised rather than drained. I am hoping this will have a big impact and that I can integrate what I have learnt into my practice.
