Established in 1992 by two record-breaking Arctic climbers Major Richard Mitchell and David Hempleman- Adams, this fantastic organisation allows 400 vulnerable children each year to take part in summer residential events. These events help to teach the children to work together, take on new challenges and develop a greater sense of self-worth and confidence.
They work in partnership with nomination agencies, to ensure that the children who would benefit most from the experience are identified.
The Youth Adventure Trust (formally the Mitchemp Trust) receives no government funding.
