Independent Expeditions
An Independent expedition is for young people to go on an expedition without a school, either joining a group of others to make up a team or joining as part of an organised group like the Scouts or Guides for example. There are a limited amount of destinations available but people go on the expedition with others they don't know. Team sizes range from 8 to around 18. Teamwork and Leadership Skills are thought especially important, as the groups may be more independent than a school based group.

Famous quotes containing the word independent:
“When the object is perceived as particular and unique and not merely the member of a family, when it appears independent of any general notion and detached from the sanity of a cause, isolated and inexplicable in the light of ignorance, then and only then may it be a source of enchantment.”
—Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
