| Rural Life Living Museum | A very good venue. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful. The activities were fun and educational and gave a real flavour of Victorian life.

| Thornton Hall Farm Country Park | Some organisational points need a bit of work, eg. The farm needs some toilets and sinks close to where children eat dinner and store their belongings to prevent time wasted in walking back and forth and more hand washing facilities that young children can use independently. | 29 August 2022 | |

| Robinwood Activity Centre - Dobroyd Castle | Confidence building, resilience, growthmindset. listening and cooperation | 22 August 2022 | |
| KidZania London | Easy to get to from train station, walking. well thought out activities giving young people a chance to try out different jobs from delivery person, to window cleaner to pilot. Lots of space and young people can be independent. Only negative is that you may have to queue for activities, this could be challenging for those needing extra support, our group commented that some staff were less than enthusiastic about their activities and this disappointed them, the fire station leader was great and enthused the children and young people, they thought all staff should be like him. | 22 August 2022 | |

| Bletchley Park Trust | Students had a very interactive experience and were challenged to complete codebreaking tasks and a self-guided quiz tour. The building is very self-contained and so there was no concern of students being able to wander off or get lost. Staff were excellent at leading the sessions and the design of the day worked well. | 22 August 2022 | |
