About Outdoor Pro
At Outdoor Pro, we're on a mission to inspire one million children every single week through the power of outdoor learning. We believe that every child deserves the chance to explore, discover and thrive in the natural world – not just occasionally, but as a regular and meaningful part of their education. Our team of passionate, highly trained professionals deliver engaging, curriculum-linked workshops that bring the outdoors to life in fun, imaginative and deeply impactful ways. Whether it’s developing emotional resilience, sparking creativity, or encouraging teamwork, everything we do is rooted in a child-centred approach that nurtures confidence and curiosity. By bringing high-quality outdoor education directly to schools and nurseries, we remove the stress of organising trips or planning resources – making it easier than ever to give children unforgettable learning experiences right where they are. With every session we deliver, we’re building a generation that’s more connected to nature, more confident in themselves, and more excited about learning.
