The GO club has taken me out of my comfort zone and even when I thought I couldn’t do something they helped me believe I could do it. Its a great fun club with the nicest people and incredible instructors. 🙂

An absolutely amazing place for kids. Best way to take first steps in canoeing, kayaking, archery for your kids. Saturday sessions, holiday club. For kids over 8 years old. Activities for adults as well, I haven’t tried that though.

I once said to my friend: ‘I didn’t make it to the top on Climbing today, I let go off the wall 🙁‘. He asked me: ‘Did everyone laugh at you?’. I realised that no one in Girls Outdoors would ever do this! All I heard was: ‘Good try!’ and ‘You will get there next time.’. And I did! 🙂. This is why I love GO ♥ positivity never leaves the group 😀
