Caving and mining for youth organisations/clubs and organisations

We’ve been back caving with youth and educational groups for a few years now and undoubtably things are different with young people.

We recognise the huge emotional toil that young people have been and some are still under. Lockdown imposed isolation and seclusion and while many young people bounced back, some may appear outwardly fine in themselves, but there can often be behaviours developing under the surface that will not appear until later years.

Withdrawn, exhibiting behaviour that is disruptive, or even bullying are all symptomatic of what the stress of Lockdown caused.

Our team understand these behaviours, and with many years of working with young people across various streams of education and care, we’re well placed to develop a programme of activity to support individuals, some or all of a class or year group.

At GoCave we continue to think creatively as to how we can best support you, your school and the young people in your care. Our sessions are often working on lower ratios, preferring to work more closely with the young people in our care and being able to support a group of 10 vs an all too common group of 15, has to be good for us, your school and the young people.

What we have in our favour is over 30 years of delivering activities that help enable young people to break down barriers and engage with teachers,fellow students and wider peer friendship groups.

To engage with each other we need to be able to look each other in the eyes and share ideas, provide instruction to peers, and provide words of encouragement.

Let us help you get your class, year group or school flourish. Lets see the smiles on faces and the friendships begin to rise and flourish once again, and not allow the stress and loneliness dominate.
