Mission Statement

The Edventure Project CiC was established to address the needs of South Gloucestershire's Home Education community by creating a supportive, democratic, and inclusive environment where children can thrive, play, and learn. Our unique team, comprised of Home Ed and SEND parents, offers a range of workshops and activities aimed at fostering growth and combating feelings of isolation and mental challenges like loneliness and anxiety. Unlike some HE groups that charge £20-40 for limited sessions, we strive to remain accessible; providing community spaces and subsidised fees through grants and donations for families in need.

We aim to promote passion-driven creative learning and skills development while catering to each individual's style and needs. Our focus in these initial years, from starting in 2022, is on building meaningful connections with our community and their families. We greatly value sponsorship and organise family-friendly fundraisers - if you are interested in sponsorship of our project, please get in touch.

The Edventure Project operates as a self-governing democracy, allowing both children and adults equal input in the group's rules and operations. Circle time may be facilitated by a young member, with mentor support, ensuring every voice in our community is heard. Through these practices, we nurture responsible decision-making and problem-solving in our children.

On Mondays and Tuesdays, we offer regular learning activities led by our inspiring mentors and professionals, including masterclasses from local experts. Each mentor has a diverse cultural and intellectual background, along with a specialised subject, focusing on experiential learning rather than traditional teaching. It's essential that all adults involved in our project truly enjoys spending time with children and young people, motivating and encouraging engagement and also holds space from them regarding well-being .

As a community project, we aim to engage families holistically. We aspire to provide workshops for parents and caregivers that promote mental, physical, and well-being. Our long-term mission is to expand the project to include a permanent farm or smallholding space with various areas of interest, such as a wellness yurt and creative studios. We hope to be part of a bigger Empowerment and Wellness Centre in coming years with the creativity and determination of Kimberley, and the unwavering support of her team.
