Ethos & Safety

Our Ethos

The No Limits ethos Live Laugh & Learn, is at the core of everything we do.

Live Our aim is to help participants to understand and achieve their potential in life. Through participation in challenging mental and physical tasks participants develop key skills and become more aware of their strengths and weaknesses as well as the scope of their potential.

Laugh Crucially, we always make sure fun is part of the process and it’s this, as well as our experience and infectious enthusiasm, that make all our programmes safe and enjoyable. After all, people always learn best when they are having fun.

Learn All our activities are designed to maximise learning opportunities – whether leadership, team working, interpersonal or other life skills, students come away from our programmes with a better sense of independence, respect for themselves and their peers and taking responsibility for their actions.

Excellent customer service Our commitment to delivering excellent customer service combined with our friendly and flexible service helps us to maintain strong relationships with all our customers and guarantees delivery of high quality programmes.  This can be demonstrated through our very high retention rate of customers, some of which have worked with No Limits Development for over 10 years.

How we work

All programmes focus on personal learning and thinking skills such as taking responsibility for one’s own actions, respect, working as part of a group or team, problem solving, decision making, leading others, communication and negotiation.

To help develop these and other essential life skills, we provide a safe and supportive environment where students can take risks and learn from their experiences.

Our methods include:

• Experiential exercises
• Leadership and team development theory sessions
• Group review
• Peer and tutor led feedback
• Individual coaching

Reflection plays an important part in personal development. As such all participants are given the opportunity to reflect on their performance as a team, and as individuals. Students learn how to give and receive constructive feedback by reviewing their strengths, achievements, behaviour and recognising areas for development.

Safety

“Every expedition offers its share of challenge and adventure – that is how students learn new skills and reach their full potential”

The safety of all young people and accompanying staff is our utmost priority. As such our programmes adhere to strict supervision ratio guidelines as outlined by the education system and AALA licensing.

To ensure the safety of everyone involved in our expeditions we implement the following safety measures:

When it comes to safety, the quality and experience of our staff is our biggest asset. They continuously review the level of risk during every stage of an expedition and all hold;
