ACCESSIBLEADVENTURES
Adventure can mean different things to different people.
Whether it’s learning to navigate mountains in winter, scaling a rockface, paddling a loch or a walk in the woods, Glenmore Lodge exists to make adventures happen for everyone whatever their background or ability.
We understand that people face different barriers to accessing and enjoying outdoor activities. Our goal is for more people to enjoy the benefits of Scotland’s wonderful outdoors and to break those barriers down, to help create a more inclusive and accessible outdoor community.
What we do
We work with a wide range of people and groups to provide tailor-made experiences that are always based on what our visitors want to get from the outdoors and are designed around their needs
Becoming more inclusive
That might mean adapting an existing course, for example providing winter skills for those who are partially sighted, or developing completely new courses such as our new British Sign Language Navigation course for people who are Deaf or hearing impaired.
Working with others
We have also worked with partners to deliver courses including para-climbing and adaptive off-road biking, and bespoke courses for groups from different social and economic backgrounds.
Learning
Each time we deliver a course or host a group, we are learning too. These experiences of working with others to remove barriers to the outdoors helps us in our journey to continually develop what we offer so that it can meet the needs of everyone in Scotland who wants to enjoy the outdoors.
