Our Adventure Centres
We have two adventure centres at which we run many of our training courses and residential projects. Groups can book day places or hire the whole of either centre for days or weeks.
Stubbers Adventure Centre
Stubbers Adventure Centre provides a range of land and water based adventurous activities for people of all ages and abilities. Climbing, Quad Biking, Jet Skiing, Sailing, Tunnelling, Archery and High Ropes are just some of the activities that are on offer. Centre staff will be happy to arrange a programme that is ideal for your club whether it be a children’s birthday party, annual school or club trip or company team building day.

Essex Boys and Girls Clubs runs a number of activities at the centre throughout the year, including the annual Essex Adventure Weekend, which means that our affiliated clubs can use the centre and equipment at a very low cost. See our activities page for more.
High Row
At the foot of Carrock Fell, sits High Row, our outdoor pursuits residential centre in the Lake District.

It offers so many possibilities for young people to have that life-changing residential experience – from living together and sharing the domestic chores, to experiencing all the challenges of adventurous activities – walking, mountain climbing, hill scrambling, abseiling, mountain biking, some water-based activities as well as the away from the TV and mobile phone experience.
It was formally known as the Carrock Fell Youth Hostel and is ideally situated for access to the Caldbeck Fells, Blencathra and Skiddaw Forrest. There is also easy access for the many watersports opportunities in the Lake District. Working together with members of Maryport Boys’ and Girls’ Club, the centre has been refurbished to provide comfortable and welcoming accommodation all year round.
If your Club is interested in taking a group to High Row or taking part in one of the many residential that take place there over the year then contact suep@essexboysandgirlsclubs.org.
