What we do

Workshops and talks

Our team are experienced motivational speakers and run interactive workshops across the U.K. Talks can be themed to fit in with existing programmes and themes or based around the Foundation teams' own expeditions, bringing to life the relationship between adventure, comfort zone and development. Examples of workshops and talks include:

What we do

Expeditions and Challenges

The Sandstone Foundation is an adventure activities licensing authority (AALA) permit holder and a Duke of Edinburgh approved activities provider. As such we can organise and execute outdoor adventurous activities on behalf of youth organisations or independently. If your school or organisation is looking to run DofE expeditions or would like to put together an outdoor activity or challenge get in touch and we can help. Previous challenges and activities include:

National 3 Peaks Challenge
Blenheim Palace Triathlon
Ben Nevis summit

Facilitated CSR programmes

The foundations corporate member is Sandstone Communications. Sandstone deliver team building, leadership and communications training globally to a large number of corporate organisations.

Many organisations are now required to operate an active corporate social responsibility programme as part of their tender and contract process. Sandstone Communications are able to utilise their experience to create CSR programmes for clients and donors. What could be more socially responsible or sustainable than inspiring and equipping future generations?

Organisation support

We work to support a number of excellent charities and organisations in delivering workshops, talks and outdoor activities. These include Duke of Edinburgh, Air Cadets, Scouts and Rotary club. If you would like to explore how we might be able to support your organisation in any way please get in touch.
