Outdoor Activity

Prince's Trust centres currently offer the Fairbridge programme, which is an individually tailored personal development programme combining one-to-one support and group activities.

Originally Fairbridge in Greater Manchester, we became part of The Prince's Trust in 2011.

Our work covers five of the ten local authorities that comprise Greater Manchester: Salford, Manchester, Tameside, Trafford and Stockport. The other five are covered by the North Manchester Centre.

Established in 1980 Britain’s most experienced summer holiday operator for children and teenagers aged 3-17 years. With a host of exciting and adventurous activities to choose from.

Our large school and college based programme includes teaching kayaking and sailing as two of the “outdoor and adventurous activity” elements of the GCSE in Physical Education for many local schools. Additionally, many colleges, schools and youth groups come to the Centre purely for fun as they feel that learning to sail or canoe is hugely enjoyable and a tremendous opportunity for young people to gain new skills.

Outset Contemporary Art Fund is a philanthropic organisation dedicated to supporting new art by bringing private funding from its patrons, partners and trustees to public museums and art projects. Since the inception of Outset England in 2003 the foundation has raised £4 million and supported more than 80 international institutions and 160 artists.
