High in the Ashdown Forest, set in 300 acres of woodland, Hindleap Warren creates opportunities for personal and social development that are second to none. For many young people, Hindleap is their first meaningful experience of the great outdoors...

"Hindleap is about making a difference.  There are not many guarantees in life but I always guarantee to my parents that their children will return as changed individuals. Hindleap has always featured heavily during my career - the whole experience is one to be savoured and repeated regularly.  It does make a difference to young people’s lives.”
Leigh Thompson – Headteacher, Little Ealing

Hindleap provides bespoke residential courses for young people from youth clubs, schools, SEN schools and specialist units working with young people and families at risk. We also deliver day courses for young people for whom a residential stay may not be possible. Our AQA Unit Award Scheme is open to all visiting groups.

Activities are accessible all year round and have been designed to stretch young people of all ages. On-site, there is archery, orienteering, pool canoeing, a climbing wall, high ropes, zip-wires, an abseiling tree, tunnels, an obstacle course and team challenges. We also take groups off-site to do canoeing, mountain biking, mine and cave exploration, rock climbing and bouldering.
