Why support us?
“Our vision is to transform young lives”
Our supporters are very special to us. It is through your kindness and generosity, that we see young lives changed through the experience of outdoor adventure! At CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION young people grow in confidence, see their fears challenged and learn more about their own spiritual, mental and physical capabilities. Whatever you choose to do to support CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION, we are here to help you every step of the way.
Updating and Improving CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION facilities
For young people to receive the best possible outdoor experience at CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION, adventure facilities and equipment must be regularly refreshed and updated. Your support, through one-off or regular gifts, will make it possible for existing facilities to be updated and new facilities to be planned for the future – each development, achieved through your support, will help young people to create positive memories for life.
Training, mentoring and discipleship
Together with our supporters, young adults can see their lives transformed through training, mentoring and discipleship courses such as the one or two year CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION Instructor Training Programme. Thanks to the generosity of our existing and new supporters (such as a trainee’s friends, families and churches) this programme is offered to our trainees at no cost.
“Without the bursary the children would not have been able to go on the residential trip which had such a positive impact on their learning.” Lucy, School Teacher
The CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION Bursary Fund – helping disadvantaged children to come to CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION
The CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION Bursary Fund means that no child misses out because their family can’t afford the trip.
It is thanks to the kind generosity of our supporters that hundreds of disadvantaged children, who otherwise would not have been able to afford a trip, have been given the chance to enjoy adventurous fun in the great outdoors with their friends.

A Gift in your Will
Can you help us to continue providing outdoor residentials for young people?
For over 100 years, CORNWALL COUNTY PLAYING FIELDS ASSOCIATION has been providing outdoor residentials for young people. Today, the need is as great as it was in 1922 when the first young people came on a summer break to our initial site – Belgrave House in West Sussex. We have seen a huge increase in the needs of young people from all walks of life: they need an opportunity to be outside; they need to learn with others; they need to improve their self-belief and to develop their resilience!
By leaving a Gift in your Will, you have the power to change the lives of young people in the future through Outdoor Adventure and the love of God.
