The Venture Trust

A charitable organisation based in Scotland, UK. Runs personal and social skills development courses from a few days to three-weeks long. Works with young people from Scotland; however, has had contracts to work with young people from across the UK.

The Venture Trust uses adventurous activities and wilderness-based expeditions as vehicles for the development work that is done in support sessions with key workers.

Experiential learning Whilst most of the work done at Venture Trust is facilitated and guided there is a strong emphasis on goal-setting, strategy development and evaluation of outcomes in attempts to help the young person find a way of getting what they want.

Choice Theory There is an underlying thread that draws strongly on the William Glasser's[] 'Choice Theory'[].
