SUPPORTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF YOUNG PEOPLE

The Sectors we work with

Our work in this sector has included charities and organisations working with children and young people facing a range of challenges:

Bereavement
High risk of involvement in crime
Exclusion from mainstream education
Special Educational Needs (SEN)
Vulnerability to abuse

We also work with sports teams and the Army and Combined Cadet Forces. Whatever your involvement with the development of young people, we can help you help them to deal with life’s challenges and reach their full potential.

DEVELOPING SKILLS FOR LIFE

Our programmes are relevant and beneficial to young people of all ages and abilities, equipping them with key skills that help them negotiate life’s challenges more successfully. We focus particularly on helping them perform to a higher standard in the areas of teamwork, leadership and communication, as well as boosting their confidence and resilience, and teaching them to recognise the importance of respect and self-discipline.

WORKING TOGETHER

Our Programmes

Because our programmes are bespoke, we’ll help you establish your goals then work alongside you to achieve them. Whether it is to improve your group’s confidence, strengthen their bond as a team or to motivate the group or individuals to perform to their maximum potential, we will provide the solutions while working to your budget and time frames.

INSPIRING INSTRUCTORS

UX2 instructors are all serving and former-serving members of HM Armed Forces. They are committed to acting as positive role models, and we find that their military background incites a level of respect that often isn’t shown to other figures of authority. This gives us a unique advantage in getting through to young people and helping them to understand the importance of working hard to achieve their potential. Harnessing our instructors’ expertise, we adapt world-renowned British-military tasks that are proven to enthuse, energise and engage.

PROGRAMME STRUCTURE

UX2 provides bespoke packages to fit with your goals, budget and time frames. From one-off days to residential courses, small groups of two or three to large groups of 100+, we can provide a package that works. We’ll find suitable locations to meet your geographical requirements, or we can host your programme at our two fantastic locations in the beautiful East Devon countryside. We can also provide transportation, where required.

Activities

Activities are all based on military exercises but adapted to make them appropriate and engaging for young people while developing the key areas of communication, resilience, self-motivation, teamwork, leadership, self-discipline and confidence.

ONE-DAY PROGRAMMES

One-day programmes can be run anywhere in the UK. We can source a location, or if you have access to a suitable outdoor space we can organise the activities on your site. One-day programmes are fast moving with lots of elements – all very hands-on to really grab the young people’s attention from the word go. They can run with varied ages within the group and can be a one-off day or series of progressive one-day programmes that focus on team building, communication skills, leadership development and fitness.

RESIDENTIAL PROGRAMMES

UX2 can provide residential accommodation for up to 200 young people, with options for 12-man tents, three-man tents and individual military cot beds with mosquito nets and bashas (shelters). We provide all bedding, toilet and washroom facilities and a large feeding area. We have two fantastic locations in East Devon but have the flexibility to locate anywhere in the UK and beyond with the right space and facilities. Our residential programmes can be tailored to achieve your goals, but all will be designed to have a positive impact on the children/young people. For some it may be a small thing they take away, for others it can be truly life changing.
