Looking for an unforgettable way to complete your Gold DofE Residential? Join one of our 5‑day outdoor adventure courses based in the stunning Brecon Beacons National Park.
You’ll get stuck into an action‑packed week including rock climbing, kayaking and canoeing, caving, hill walking, and gorge walking. You’ll take on new challenges, learn skills, and push yourself outside your comfort zone – all while having a lot of fun.
You’ll be joining other Gold DofE participants from across the UK, making new friends and creating memories that last well beyond the week. Our residentials are designed to help you build confidence, grow independence, and stand out – whether that’s for uni, apprenticeships, or future jobs.
You’ll be based at Plas Pencelli Outdoor Activity Centre, a fully insured, AALA‑licensed centre and an Approved Activity Provider for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.
