Prince’s Trust Residential Weeks
Active Outdoor Pursuits have been providing Prince’s Trust residential programmes for the last two decades. We will work with you and your team to develop a tailor-made activity programme so that you can get the most out of your residential week.
During your Prince’s Trust Team Residential, you will stay in our Cairngorms Adventure Centre, based in Newtonmore. From here, you will take part in a range of adventurous outdoor activities and team building challenges throughout the days and evenings.
Why Choose Active for your Prince’s Trust Team Residential?

Active are licensed with AALA and have also been awarded the prestigious five star Visit Scotland Outdoor Activity Provider badge, as well as being an approved British Canoeing Paddlesports Centre.
Our roots lie in youth work and it is something we are both proud of and passionate about. There are many physical and mental health benefits that are attributed to Outdoor Adventure Education and these benefits will last long into people’s futures. Our Prince’s Trust Team Residential programmes are designed to develop confidence and resilience in young people, to challenge them and leave them with a lasting sense of achievement and to encourage teamwork and communication. They will be given the opportunity to learn new skills in a safe and supportive environment and to explore and have fun outdoors. We aim to inspire individuals to find solace in their environment and recognise the personal benefits from being outside.
