Xlr8 is an amazing project where a group of 12 young people have the fantastic opportunity to experience a wide range of exciting activites. 

The team have great fun working together to decide how to spend their budget on their 8 - 12 week programme, which takes place for one afternoon a week during the school day. 

Activites chosen by young people so far have included: canoeing, horse riding, outdoor pursuits, drums & percussion, fishing, going for a picnic, cinema in school, Symonds Yat just to name a few!

The project is designed to support young people to develop better self-esteem and self confidence, team work and social skills as they enjoy making new friends in a fun relaxed environment.  

During the project staff take photos and video clips so that each young person receives a portfolio of their achievements, as well as a certificate of achievement once the project has come to an End.
