What they say...
From start to finish the Bear Grylls team were fantastic. They were prompt and organised. Made the team feel at ease for a very daunting challenge. Supported us whilst giving us the freedom to learn and grow. They were extremely knowledgeable and supportive and I would 100% recommend them in the future.
When we signed up for the Bear Grylls Survival Academy experience for our corporate away days we were a little nervous to say the least, however it turned out to be undoubtably one of the most memorable experiences for all of us. Each member of staff came away having pushed their limits, tried things they never thought they'd do, and ultimately every one of them had the most amazing time! Even those in the team who aren’t as outdoorsy as the others got stuck right in, thanks to the encouragement of their teammates and the support of the great instructors we had on hand.
We're so thankful to the Bear Grylls Survival Academy for providing us with a once in a lifetime experience, which they tailored to our exact group size and needs. The team at BGSA made the booking experience a dream, and with the amazing instructors on hand we all felt safe, secure and in great spirits throughout the entire course – despite the rain!
We'd definitely recommend the Bear Grylls Survival Academy to any company looking for a truly unique and memorable team building experience.
This course allowed me to really challenge myself both Physically and Mentally. I will never forget the strength of feelings that this course brought out in me. I saw only the best in people around me, well beyond my expectations. The course did far more than it could ever 'put on the tin'. The Bear Grylls team were role models of what can be achieved in life irrespective of age. The BG certificate will find Pride of Place amongst my many others for many, many reasons. Thank you all for the memories

The BGSA are an exceptional team of people and we cannot recommend them highly enough. They created an exceptional day which allowed everyone to challenge and push themselves whilst recognising limits and abilities - the result was a day that developed teamwork, bonding, fun, laughter, competition and increased knowledge. The instructors were open and approachable and went out of their way to guide and assist without encroaching. I would encourage any company to book BGSA at various levels of the organisation - I know we will be doing so again soon.
