Survival Skills Weekend

Survival Skills Weekend
21st century living is all about comfort and cosiness - often our idea of adventure is ordering a different takeaway. But we were designed to be capable of much more! Leave the mod-cons at home and rediscover your survival instincts with a weekend in the wild. Say hello to your fellow survivors as you sort out equipment preparation and get some initial instruction. You'll then set off together across a 500 acre site on an awareness walk using a map and compass, with training in all sorts of survival techniques - learn about edible plants, survival medicine, firelighting, skinning food (oh yes, this is proper survival), food preparation, collecting water and navigation. You'll build your own shelter - make it a good one, you'll be spending the night in it - before preparing your meal and cooking it over an open fire. Then bed down in your shelter for the night in the wilderness. Learn more survival techniques on Sunday and enjoy a survival-style Sunday lunch to wrap up your weekend.

London Dinner and Theatre Evening for Two
Step out together on a glitzy night out in the West End. Enjoy a delicious dinner and then settle into your top-price seats to see a great show. Start with a two-course pre-theatre meal from the table d'hote menu at one of a selection of restaurants. Each offer fine European cuisine, and they're located in Covent Garden, Soho or Holborn - all within easy walking distance of theatreland. Then get the show on the road with top price tickets to see one of a selection of West End shows. There's something to suit every taste so choose from our range including the star-studded, jazz-vibed Chicago; the Queen rock spectacular We Will Rock You; the moving social commentary of Willy Russell's Blood Brothers; toe-tapping percussion with Stomp; the hilarity of the Monty Python based show Spamalot; the ghostly tale of The Woman in Black, the classic The Sound of Music or, if you love the music and times of the 50s, learn about rising star Buddy Holly in Buddy or go for high school musical Grease.

Then you'll head outside for a demonstration of casting and fishing techniques. Next you'll tackle up and get a feel for the equipment you'll be using.

You can also take home two of the fish you catch at the end of the day.

Kids Cowboy Adventure for Six
Transport yourself back to the days of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid with this wild west adventure for the cowboy or cowgirl in you.

You'll meet your own trusty steed, saddle up and head off for a one hour riding lesson in the Western Riding Arena - western style. It's easier to learn and feels more secure than riding English-style, so it's great even for beginners.

You'll also get certificates to take home to show everyone that you're official Junior Cowboys.
