WORKING WITH BUSINESSES
Enrich Lives, Boost Confidence, Encourage Better Mental Health
As working from home and hybrid working become the new business norm, it's more important than ever that teams have opportunities to meet and bond.
​
Businesses are invited to get in touch to arrange an event for the purposes of developing employees’ personal skills, team building, or a unique corporate experience.
​
With experience of encouraging all ages and abilities to succeed and excel, Ashby’s Adventure Trails and Treks will inspire individuals to push their boundaries and sample new territory.
​
Courses are available with basic survival training to enable participants to learn about themselves and understand how to survive in mountainous terrain, from creating fire and building shelter to surviving cold water shock. We take corporate groups out of the office, introduce them to the most isolated places in the UK, and provide individuals and teams with the opportunity to bond and grow. If you would like participants to try canoeing, kayaking, or any other activity, let us know and we will do what we can to make arrangements to accommodate your request.
TESTIMONIALS
Dean took me up Snowdon....I never would have made it up there without him. He knew exactly what to say to motivate me to make the extra effort I needed to make it to the peak.
Gareth Ebbrell, CBS
I have worked alongside Dean in his capacity as a senior leader for a number of years now. Not only is he a good manager, but he knows how to plan and organise events so everyone has the opportunity to perform to their full potential. He’s an outstanding leader.
Matt White, Manager
Dean's passion for health and fitness is contagious! His attitude has a massively positive impact on everyone around him. He makes us feel like we can do better.

Claire Healy
So today I ran 15 miles. It's crazy to think that six weeks ago, I was considering pulling out of the London marathon because I could barely run two miles. I can't thank this group enough for helping me change my mindset, believing in me, and helping me get my confidence back.
Claire Kelly, Head of Corporate Partnerships
Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation
A heartfelt thanks Dean, Steph, and team for making the Three Peaks Challenge happen. It’s a first for the charity, it’s never been done before. Your excellence, professionalism and experience shone through; you really could show a lot of operators how to deliver through passion and service…
Tom Smith, lead singer of The Haciendas
Thank you so much for getting me through the challenge. Without Nikki, I'd never have finished Snowdon. She was a massive help to me... These are memories I will never forget, and it was a pleasure meeting and doing it with you all. Legends the lot of you!
