What we love at GetOut

March

 

Holly and Chloe are currently training to become Outdoor and Adventure Therapists with The Therapy Adventure. This qualification will allow us to provide ethical and safe therapeutic interventions within the woodland environment.

Holly recently returned from an inspiring weekend away reflecting on how the outdoors provides the perfect setting for person-centered, values-based work. During her immersive weekend, she explored her own bravery while rock climbing, practiced resilience through spoon whittling, and recognized her personal limits during cold water swimming. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with many other enthusiastic and inspiring outdoor practitioners.

We are really looking forward to bringing these new skills and perspectives to our work at GetOut.

 

We enjoyed a great afternoon at Queen Margaret University as part of a 2nd year Professional Challenge. Groups made up of Education, Sociology and Psychology students were given a professional challenge by partners such as ourselves, Learning Through Landscapes, and NatWest. The students worked as a team to overcome the challenges set, presented their solutions in such a clear, confident manner, and genuinley helped us with their ideas.
