The Bendrigg Subsidy enables socially and economically underprivileged people with disabilities to benefit from the ‘Bendrigg Experience’. Without this financial aid, our participants would simply not be able to take part in these life-enhancing experiences.

    Situation

    People with a disability or encountering social disadvantage face multiple barriers to reaching their full potential and being all they can be in a fully inclusive society. A third of households with a disabled person cannot afford to pay for a week's annual holiday away from home whilst 86% of families with a disabled child go without leisure activities. An individual's financial situation should not be a barrier to them taking part in activities that could enhance their lives.

    Solution

    It's important to us that our courses are accessible to all regardless of financial or social disadvantage. The Bendrigg Bursary enables socially & economically underprivileged people with disabilities to benefit from the ‘Bendrigg Experience’. Without this financial aid, our participants would simply not be able to take part in these life-enhancing experiences. £20 will enable 1 person to experience a weekend of inclusive adventure activities, whilst £80 would extend this experience to a week.
