What I love about being a part of Youth Vision is working alongside everyone; there is always something different going on, with lots of different ideas being shared; it’s refreshing to meet people from all walks of life. It’s great to see the young peoples’ confidence growing.

Lime mortaring and safe tool use were my biggest achievements and I would like to do traditional plastering and rendering as a career.

Really enjoyed the experience. The young people that come to Youth Vision really get a lot out of it, as it pushes their comfort zone and helps them to explore their strengths in a non-threatening way that helps expand their horizons. I love, love, love it!

Jordon has loved every minute here. It has helped build his confidence with others. He has been much keener to be out and about and having a bit more space has been great for me.

Youth Vision is good; I’ve learnt a lot of things, like making fires. I only get these experiences at Youth Vision. It’s somewhere I can prepare food, which I like, and cook food for people.

What a beautiful place. The boys really enjoyed their time here and were sad to say goodbye. They particularly enjoyed the freedom and felt they were allowed to grow up and be independent. They made new friendships. They have a genuine respect for the place. What a wonderful nurturing and life-affirming experience. Brilliant!

Youth Vision gets me more active, it gets me out of the city into the country, which is good for my health.

We have worked with Youth Vision in the past and our young people have really valued the opportunity the bespoke timetable has offered them. The regular contact and dove-tailing with the traditional timetable has made a real difference to how the young people view their outdoor learning experience.

As a school we are looking for partners who can offer sustained opportunities for young people as part of a supported curriculum and Youth vision has offered this effectively for our students.

Adam has gained more independence and confidence. He has loved coming here and gaining survival knowledge. He has learnt his strength is more than he thought and that he can achieve if he tries and doesn’t give up. He has loved meeting new people and being part of a fantastic group. Thanks to Youth Vision for all their help and support and for helping Adam to see he has got great potential.
