WE ARE…
…a centre providing educational outdoor activities for schools & youth, corporate, special interest and family groups. We specialise in learning outside the classroom (or office) delivering a variety of programmes from a school Team Building Day to Corporate Apprentice Induction programmes and ILM Leadership & Management Qualifications.
We are based on Lydeard Farm in Somerset on the Quantock Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty within easy access of the Mendip Hills for caving, climbing and walking, Exmoor National Park and the Devon coastline for walking, coasteering, sea kayaking and stand up paddling.
Our sister company Outposts Travel Africa organise luxury holidays to all over Africa.

WHY WORK WITH OUTPOSTS?
Customer Service
We pride ourselves on going the extra mile for our clients. Nothing is too much bother. Communication is a powerful tool – we believe in leading by example for all our clients.
EXPERTS
Our facilitators have years of experience. They come from a variety of backgrounds but are united in their passion for using their knowledge to develop people and businesses.
ACCREDITED COURSES
As an ILM Approved Centre we can not only deliver ILM Level 3 and 4 Awards in Leadership and Management but create our own content within City & Guilds guidelines.
TAILORED APPROACH
There is no “one size fits all” in our approach. We work with organisations from global engineering companies to schools and individuals and each experience is completely bespoke.
GLOBAL LOCATIONS
Our training programmes can take place either in Somerset at our purpose-built site or we can travel to you, be that in the UK or to global locations, enabling you to provide consistent training.
OUTSTANDING FEEDBACK
We would say that what we do is excellent value for money but who better to back that up than our customer feedback, many of whom have been working with us for several years.
EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING
We believe in the power of experiential learning being interwoven with team and leadership development theory. Remember: I hear, and I will forget, I see, and I remember, I do, and I understand.
TRANSFERABLE SKILLS
The soft skills we develop during our programmes, such as problem-solving, critical thinking, leadership and communication, are transferable between workplaces, education and life.
“You have transformed the way I empower staff in formulating an exciting vision for the future. The fact you will be returning to hold me to account helps provide real momentum too. Thank you.”
