This
list is not intended to be exhaustive nor as a shopping list. Choosing activities for a group should
only be done when the learning objectives and aims of the workshop are clear. We
then consider ways of enhancing the learning experience, the group's abilities,
fitness and experience and only then choose an activity for those good reasons,
not because "I'd like a go!" (See wrong reasons to choose MDO) Even then we
rarely include an activity without designing an exercise around it to emphasise
the learning objectives and to take all abilities and preferences of delegates
into consideration. However, to give an idea of activities we can include,
where appropriate, the following list and pictures of happy participants
are included.

These activities are provided to complement our
development training programmes and designed to enhance the learning processes.
We do not normally provide them for individuals or groups to "have a
go." However, we do have a number of trusted associates who can
provide just such a service, providing safe and professional outdoor events.
Call us for recommendations. For example, if you would like an experienced
mountaineer to guide you on a hill walk or to learn or hone your navigation
skills, we strongly and confidently recommend Paul Shorrock at Hillcraft.
