Suffolk EIP (NSFT) are fundraising to be able to offer Adventure Therapy. Adventure Therapy has a growing body of evidence to supports that taking part in physically challenging activities, alongside a supportive team and in an awe-inspiring nature setting, can have a hugely positive impact on our outlook and wellbeing. Adventure Therapy can be the turning point in a recovery journey, where confidence and self-belief are rebuilt following a difficult experience.

In 2024, Suffolk EIP service users and staff sailed 208 miles from Ipswich to Portsmouth on a 22m+ sailing yacht as part of the Voyage to Recovery which was organised with other EIP teams to circumnavigate the British coast. Service users have said that they benefited greatly from this experience and have inspired us to continue fundraising to offer other Adventure Therapy opportunities in the future.

We aim to take part in a residential North Wales adventure therapy – including a climb of Snowdon – watch this space for further announcements!
