Handbook – Residential and Outdoor Provision
Between 2009-2011 CWVYS was commissioned by the Welsh Government to facilitate the research and publishing of Youth Work Methodology Handbooks or best practice guides for youth workers in Wales. CWVYS facilitated this work by bringing together voluntary youth organisations and maintained local authority youth services. This document is part of a library of Good Practice Methodology Handbooks for Youth Work in Wales.
The aim of this handbook is to provide a resource from which youth workers can draw inspiration and confidence to organise adventure activities and residential opportunities for young people.
It draws upon the experiences of youth work practitioners and provides just a few examples of the wide variety of good practice evident across Wales
Adventure activities and residential experiences can provide the most memorable learning opportunities for young people. Creating opportunities to encounter new challenges, helping young people to build self esteem, increase motivation and gain a sense of accomplishment and achievement.
