Our Purpose

Closing The Wellbeing Gap Across Merseyside

We exist to make the outdoors, and its evidenced wellbeing benefits, accessible to everyone in our community, regardless of background, ability, or circumstance. Loneliness, poor mental health, and physical inactivity remain at crisis levels across Merseyside, and access to green space and wellbeing support is deeply unequal.

For many residents, cost, confidence, and a lack of community are the primary obstacles to participation. Adventure Code CIC removes cost as a barrier and provides a low-pressure route into outdoor activity, one that builds sustained engagement, confidence, and social connection over time.

The Evidence Base

The Scale Of The Challenge In Our Communities

1 in 4 UK adults report experiencing loneliness regularly
3 Cost, confidence, and community remain the greatest barriers to outdoor participation
Low Deprived communities face disproportionate barriers to green space and wellbeing provision
High Demand for mental health support continues to outstrip NHS capacity
Our Delivery Model

Free & Subsidised Community Programmes

Each programme is designed as an accessible first step: low-pressure, evidence-informed, and built around sustained community connection rather than performance or competition.
