About us

Since 1953, as Bristol and District OBA and, more recently, as Avon OBA, we've provided financial assistance and support to enable young people to attend Outward Bound® courses.

How we help young people

We give support to candidates normally resident in North Somerset, Bath, North East Somerset, the City of Bristol and South Gloucestershire Local Authority areas.

To be considered for grant aid young people should satisfy the enrolment criteria for any of the courses offered by The Outward Bound® Trust. We give priority to those still in full time education.

What they thought

"Going on this course was a brilliant thing to do. I found new skills in myself and came home a new person."
Pupil, St George Community School, Bristol

"The scariest thing was abseiling down a 100-foot cliff, I don't think I have ever been so terrified, but it was worth it when I had finished."
Pupil, Gordano School, Portishead

"Some of the young people have been on other courses but its not the same at Outward Bound."
Teacher, Clevedon Community School
