Become a Young Explorer
Having run expeditions since 1932, our programmes are designed to be life-changing.
Young people’s expectations of themselves and others are challenged. Experiences are shared and futures are shaped.
Our work is transformational for everyone who participates. Wider society also benefits from the adventurous, resilient, adaptable team players we help to create.
Our unique approach developed through nearly a century of experience means that British Exploring Society is recognised as the ‘go to’ authority on youth development through transformative challenges and experiences in remote locations.

There are several important steps to a Young Explorer’s journey with us. Throughout, we are always available to support them. From beginning to end each step helps them to develop responsibility, confidence, problem-solving initiative, and communication skills.
