Impact

Incorporating walks and quests into community activities is a multi-faceted approach that not only promotes personal growth but also contributes to the betterment of society and the environment as described below.

​

• Wellbeing: Provides an opportunity for individuals to be outdoors, close to nature, which has been linked to improved mental health and overall wellbeing.

• Self-esteem: Offers a sense of purpose and accomplishment as participants learn new things about their community or environment. This can boost self-esteem and confidence, leading to improved overall wellbeing.

• Critical thinking skills: Involves actively engaging with the environment or solving challenges/puzzles, which requires participants to think critically and creatively. Additionally, our guides will encourage participants to ask questions, think outside the box, and analyse information in order to fully understand their surroundings. This type of active learning promotes critical thinking skills that can be transferred to other areas of life.

• Physical activity: Regular physical activity has been linked to improved cognitive function and memory retention.

• Cultural understanding: Provides an opportunity for individuals to learn about the history, culture, and traditions of a particular place through interactive experiences. This can foster cultural appreciation and understanding among participants, promoting a more inclusive and diverse society.

• Social interaction: Serves as a social activity, bringing people from different backgrounds together to explore and learn together. This can help improve communication skills, build relationships, and create a sense of community.

• Sustainability: Environmental benefits by promoting sustainable transportation methods such as walking instead of driving or taking public transport.

​

​We are committed to making a positive impact in the community by providing accessible and engaging educational experiences. Through partnerships with diverse communities, we aim to reach individuals who may not have access to traditional learning opportunities. Furthermore, our customised experiences cater to the specific needs and interests of each group.
