Thank you for an amazing weekend guys. You made our job so much easier and took away a lot of the stress that normally accompanies a residential visit. I couldn't believe it when we got off the coach - I was stressing about meds and leaving things on the coach, when I turned round the kids had their waterproofs on ready to go! The safety aspects were very well thought of which also lifted the stress. We all felt very safe in your care. The way you looked after our vulnerable children was amazing.

Social and Events
Both activity centres are situated in great locations for taking part in adventure activities. A lot of the outdoor activity sessions provided for staff can be used to build up your log book for NGB assessments, for Canoeing, Climbing and Walking.
Throughout the course of a year at Robinwood we will offer the following opportunities for Robinwood staff to take part in adventure activities under the guidance of independent experts and/or Robinwood senior staff:
Staff residentials generally take place at Easter and in October, with opportunities for climbing, hill walking and canoeing.
We offer other activities, more as fun team building events, as part of the overall Robinwood staff package at no extra charge. These could, for example, include a paintball day or an indoor karting grand prix event.
A key part of working at Robinwood is the social life. We have a staff team with similar interests, generally aged between 21 and 30, who are keen to have a good time. There are plenty of pub trips, staff meals out and a variety of other social events. We do also find time to get a lot of work done !
