Biography

Exploring and learning outdoors
An exciting, safe and memorable outdoor experience for children. Exploring and understanding the natural world is fundamental to everything we do.

Welcoming over 24,000 children a year, Nell Bank is dedicated to helping every child connect with nature by running exciting, safe and educational outdoor activity days that inspire learning and inquisitiveness.

Exciting Programmes
Our programmes are designed to deliver important social and educational outcomes. We ensure children are far too busy having fun to realise how much they’re learning. Come for a day visit that fits perfectly into a school day, or a residential so your class can enjoy a two-night stay filled with action-packed learning and fun.

Facilities for all
We pride ourselves on being inclusive. It’s not just our site, activity and play areas that have been designed with accessibility in mind, but also our accommodation. Our site is fully equipped with everything you’d want to cater for a wide range of needs.

Local Community
We are active within the local community. Whether that’s putting on themed activity days such as Easter Egg Hunts, arts trails, or simply opening our facilities up to local groups, Nell Bank is here to offer support when needed. Why not join our growing team of volunteers, to share skills and meet like-minded people?

The Nell Bank Charitable Trust
Children from deprived areas of our community often don’t get access to green open space or to explore the countryside. The chance to experience these spaces can make a huge difference in a child’s mental and physical health. We’re here to make sure they get that opportunity.
