Tyr Abad Outdoor Education Centre

Mark Tiernan is organizing this fundraiser to benefit TYR ABAD RESIDENTIAL EDUCATION CENTRE.

Tyr Abad Outdoor Education Centre

Situated in the village of Tirabad near Llangammarch Wells on the edge of the Brecon Beacons and The Epynt.

Covid-19 has had a significant impact on our operation, resulting in us not hosting any school group at the centre from March and it is not likely we will be able to resume services to schools until 2021, due to government restrictions on operations.

We are a Charity providing opportunities for young people to participate in wide range of high quality residential outdoor education activities;
developing self-esteem, wellbeing, resilience, socialisation, independence and the ability to work as a team.

Groups take advantage of the many curriculum based learning activities and also participate in outdoor sports, which include mountain walking, climbing, abseiling, archery, canoeing, kayaking, caving, gorge walking, mountain biking, orienteering and team building challenges.

The continued Covid-19 related government suspension of operations and restrictions on the residential outdoor education sector have resulted in the centre unable to create income to offset our operating costs.

We are in need of finance support to secure the continual operation of the Tyr-Abad Education Trust which was due to be celebrating its 50th year of “Changing the Lives of Young People”.

We welcome all donations, and would consider partnerships with other organisations to secure our future operation
