Safety

We believe in ‘safety first, second and third’ and that is why we aim to educate pupils about safety management as well as ensuring our activities are delivered safely. We want to help pupils to stay safe for a lifetime, not just the duration of their trip.

Adventure Quest is part of Travel Class Ltd which is renowned for its advanced safety and back up procedures, supporting thousands of pupils to completing challenging activities throughout the UK. Highly qualified and experienced professionals from the team have designed all Adventure Quest safety policies and procedures and continue to oversee all safety related issues.  Balancing risk and adventure to retain challenge but in a safe environment is what we're good at.

Leader training and selection.  We run a rigorous selection and training course for all Adventure Quest staff. Our leaders are all Criminal Records Bureau checked, are suitably trained and qualified for the activities they are responsible for and are continually assessed by senior Adventure Quest staff throughout their employment.

Ratios.  All Adventure Quest activities operate within safe instructor to pupil ratios suitable for the activities undertaken in compliance with the Travel Class Safety Policy and approved by Travel Class Ltd's Technical Advisor in accordance with the appropriate governing bodies. Teachers (one per group) are expected to accompany the groups and provide pastoral care and manage discipline issues.

Risk assessment.   Copies of our generic risk assessment and site specific risk assessments will be sent to you.

First aid. Each of our sites are equipped with First Aid kits and all our leaders are First Aid trained, so help is always available as soon as it’s needed.

Public Liability Insurance.  Adventure Quest is fully insured under the comprehensive Travel Class Ltd Policy.

Duty cover. 24 hour duty staff available at the Buxton Centre as well as a fully equipped Operations Centre at the Travel Class Head Office.
