Our Resilience Programme empowers children to thrive! Our aim is to boost children's mental and physical resilience. We provide them with essential life skills, give them access to outdoor adventure activities and involve them in team tasks. This boosts their confidence, helps them develop good habits and a positive mental attitude so they can grow and become active and engaged citizens within our community.

We are so proud as a charity to sponsor Kath as a shining example of true resilience, inspiring young girls to overcome barriers and lead by example! Good luck guys in the Deaf World Cup rugby championship! 💪🥰

Kath Stevenson - CAPTAIN 📣

Our fierce, hardworking, fitness fanatic will be sure to lead by example, both on and off the pitch. Kath is a respected, committed and dependable long term member of the Wales Deaf women’s team who triumphed in Argentina. We are more than confident that Kath will guide, motivate and inspire the girls to give their all in Tokyo. 🧡

While many people know us for the support we provide to children and young people, we're delighted to be expanding our reach through our partnership with NPT Trailblazer, working alongside adults in our communities as well. This collaboration allows us to support individuals of all ages to unlock their potential, gain valuable skills, and take meaningful steps towards employment and independence.

Seeing participants grow in confidence, set new goals, and recognise their own strengths is exactly why we do what we do.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in making this programme a success. Together, we're helping people build resilience, improve wellbeing, and create brighter futures.

Thanks to the generous support of the John and Cath Charitable Foundation, we were able to provide three unforgettable days of fun, challenge, and connection for a group of care experienced children and young people.

We saw confidence grow, friendships form, and memories made that will last a lifetime. Thank you for helping make such a positive difference. 🌟

Some fantastic feedback from the Youth Adventure Trust, who we are proud to partner with every year for their Summer Camps.

"The staff team always go above and beyond to make sure our trips are memorable, impactful, and enjoyable. We saw our young people grow in confidence and resilience through the week and this is in no small part due to the dedication, empathy and commitment the Call of The Wild staff show every time we work with them. This is what sees us come back year after year. We cannot recommend Call of The Wild enough and we are already looking forward to our next visit in 2027"

🎒☀️ School holidays are here... but some children are already asking, "When can we go back?"
Not for maths. Not for homework. For our Resilience Programme! 💪🌟
A week packed with adventure, laughter, new challenges and moments that show children they're capable of so much more than they ever imagined. From conquering fears to building confidence, every day is an opportunity to grow, achieve and have a huge amount of fun along the way.

Just watch this video and you'll see why so many children can't wait to come back! 👇

Just one way to keep cool. This is the kind of office day I like!

With the current hot weather, it’s easy to be drawn to the water—but this is also a reminder of how important it is to stay safe. The right supervision, safety equipment, and guidance make all the difference in turning something risky into something truly empowering.
I’m so proud to be part of a charity that helps build confidence and create opportunities like this. 💙
