Group activity breaks
At Bendrigg we welcome groups of all shapes and sizes. Whether you are an ‘official’ group such as a charity, support group, care home or hospice; or an ‘unofficial’ group of like-minded people coming together, your Bendrigg experience will fill you with conviction and confidence. No matter what your ability, the team at Bendrigg will enable everyone in your group to participate in adventure activities.

Pricing and help with funding
Our prices vary depending on the following :
- When you want to visit
- How long you want to stay
- How many people you’d like to bring
For an accurate quote please get in touch via our contact form.
Fundraising, donations and grant support helps us to subsidise the cost of a visit to Bendrigg. This allows us to keep our prices as low as possible. We currently subsidise each person by an average of £168 per visit.
We also fundraise for an additional Sponsorship Fund. If you, your family, or your group would like to visit us, but cannot afford to, then you can apply to our sponsorship fund to part-fund the cost of your visit. Sponsorship varies from 10% to 50% of the total cost, and will depend on the availability of funds at the time. Get in touch if you would like to know more.
A separate Funding Pack is available upon request to help you find your own funders and apply for financial support toward your trip. Please contact us via the contact form to request a copy.
