Activity Days/Sessions for
Education & Youth Groups

We are passionate about the participation of young people in watersports - we offer fabulous opportunities for learning through outdoor fun!

We believe every child/young adult should be encouraged to experience outdoor activities and enjoy  the wealth of benefits that getting out of the classroom and into the great outdoors brings. 

Improvements and development in personal and social skills, independence, resilience and team work are amongst a few. Improvement in physical health and mental wellbeing come hand in hand with this.  

​Whether it be a single end of term activity day, or a series of skill sessions during term time, we have something for every budget. We can tailor any session to match your specific requirements.    

“A huge ‘thank you’  for all your support with the students from Sheffield Hallam on Tuesday. I was there for the day as a member of staff and was really impressed by the set up at Manvers and all the staff involved. It’s a great place! I would love to bring my students down there in the next Academic year! Thanks again”.

Helen, Sheffield Hallam University
