About BF ADVENTURE

BF Adventure is an outdoor centre and charity in Cornwall.

We help disadvantaged children and young people to believe in themselves and make positive decisions for their future.

Most of our clients face many challenges in their young life including: Family breakdown, Bereavement, Domestic violence, Drug misuse, Poverty, Mental health issues and disability.

BF Adventure uses the medium of outdoor activities to provide each young person with a programme tailor-made to their needs.

Equipped with increased confidence, new skills and a positive outlook most children will return to school or college or enter employment when they leave us.

Without our support many of these young people would face a downward spiral towards a loss of self-esteem, homelessness, crime and drug use.

Funds raised may be used to ...

raise money for our BUILDING BRIGHTER FUTURES APPEAL to replace our temporary portable buildings with new and more indoor space. Provision of new buildings will allow us to: Support twice as many children and young people to find their feet and make the most of their lives - Give 300 disabled people and their carers opportunities for urgently needed respite breaks - Help twice as many young people to achieve accreditations using additional classroom space - Educate twice as many children about healthy eating and offer them a nutritious meal that they wouldn't have received at home To get the building project started and to be able to apply for match funding we will need to raise an initial £50k.
