Origin
Outward Bound Hong Kong began in a chat over tea. In the coffee shop of the Hilton Hotel. Trevor Clark, who knew about Outward Bound in Africa, Captain Olaf Work, Manager of [Holt's Wharf]], with its strong connection with the founding of Outward Bound, and Sir David, who had met and talked to Kurt Hahn while teaching at Gordonstoun, and climbed Cader Idris with Outward Bound at Aberdovey and later helped to develop Outward Bound in Lumut, Malaya. The idea spread through the corridors of the Hongs culminating in a talk and reception in the lecture room of Shell in Shell House. Enthusiasm, supported by sound advice and help from so many and we had begun our voyage "Outward Bound".
