Who are we?

Helping you realise your potential through adventure & education, in a positive Christian environment.

 So, what about us? Who are we and what do we stand for?

Adventure Plus has been at the forefront of providing quality adventure activities to children for 30 years. Founded in 1990 by Jon and Tessa Cox,  we offer adventure holidays, school residential trips, DofE expeditions, Team Building, and more. Our aim is to inspire and encourage young people (and adults) in Oxfordshire and across the UK. If you want to read more about us as a charity, pick up a copy of Jon Cox’s book Life to the Max.

Adventure Plus exists to help children and young people reach their potential and make positive life choices, whilst giving them a great time in the great outdoors!

How do we do this?

We want to see young people embrace the adventures that life offers. Our team are passionate about helping them get active, push themselves and learn more about their abilities. We look at this through the larger lens of the Christian faith which is at the heart of all we do.

This is primarily achieved through:

Group Adventures Providing adventure activities for schools, youth groups, DofE, church weekends away and family groups.

Adventure Impact: Our specialist unit works with those aged 8-21 who are vulnerable, disadvantaged, or have additional needs.

Total Adventure Holidays: Residential holidays and day camps for individuals and groups of friends.

GAP: Adventure training and discipleship gap year and internship programmes.

Adventure Club and Canoe Club enable local young people to be involved every week.

 The aim through all of our programmes is to leave the young people wanting more, so that they keep returning to A+. Then they can benefit from the long-term impact as relationships develop over years. This means we are able to provide mentoring and encouragement right through their teens and into early adulthood.

Our Vision is to help you to “Realise your potential, through adventure and education, in a positive Christian environment.”
