Oakfield Solutions works with young people who are excluded from school and gives them the opportunity to gain alternative education. They use BECKs Development Training to provide outdoor activities which will improve the young people's confidence, their ability to communicate, their problem solving skills, respect for other people and the environment and eventually change their attitude towards authority.

Climbing at Kyloe in the Woods

"Rock Climbing was the perfect dynamic adventurous activity which addressed the needs of our disaffected students!

Students were able to appreciate the value of working together, proving support and encouragement .

BDT staff have a clear understanding of the client group's needs, BDT endeavour to support and encourage individuals to reach their potential and improve students' self esteem and personal development." Jon Craggs, Case Manager

"I never climed before, it was a class experience!"

"I was scared of heights and I really proud of myself, that I climed as high as I did."

"I learned how to tie knots and how to belay."

"I had an amazing day and want to go climbing again."
