Excursions at Calvert
Archery is one of the most popular inclusive activities at Calvert Lakes. Combining gross and fine motor skills, this activity is adaptable so those living with physical, learning and sensory disabilities can build confidence while participating fully in a safe and supportive environment.
The archery range sits towards the top of the site and enjoys stunning views of Dodd Wood as a backdrop with Bassenthwaite Lake sprawling out below. Accessed via steps or a gently sloping ramp from the main site, this activity can be adapted for a wide range of needs, focusing on what people can do and celebrating achievement with fun challenges.
Our experienced team guide participants through the fundamental elements of archery teaching about the equipment, technique and how to aim and release. Once the basics have been mastered, challenge activities can be introduced such as attaching homemade targets or balloons to target butt. Archery games, like making pizza by targeting certain colours, ensure everyone remains engaged and motivated and we’re confident all participants will have a successful hit under their belt by the end of each session!
