The company was first founded in 2007 by David Smith. It was known as “Dare 2b Challenged”. After two years of trading David decided to re-brand the business into a more focused enterprise. The focus of Outdoor Active is to help people explore, get fit, and learn through outdoor activities. This is done by delivering high quality courses and activity sessions. At Outdoor Active we are an institutional member of the Institute for Outdoor Learning (IOL) and fully licensed to offer outdoor activities to under 18′s by the Adventure Activities Licensing Service (AALS), which is controlled by the Health & Safety Executive (HSE). Further to this we are a Duke of Edinburgh Approved Activity Provider.
