The Outdoor Collaborative (Adam Ward)

The Outdoor Collaborative, is a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) that advances education in Greater Manchester in the art of photography and filmmaking focused on the outdoors, particularly amongst young people. The charity does this by providing guided walks in the British countryside whilst incorporating training to develop and improve digital media skills. By providing these services, The Outdoor Collaborative gives the users an opportunity to gain valuable life skills.The young people will also get a much needed ‘stepping stone’ to future employment as their work will be showcased for potential employers to view. The lives of the young people will also be improved as, by providing an opportunity to be outdoors and be creative, their mental health should be improved.
