Our Step Up to Team Leadership cohort and Engineering Apprentices have just returned from an unforgettable residential week in Pembrokeshire!
From coasteering along rugged coastlines to team-building challenges that tested resilience, the experience pushed everyone to grow- mentally, physically, and emotionally.

Here’s what some of our participants had to say:
- “Literally mind blowing- if you want to find out who you are, it’s a must. It challenged me on every level and expanded my comfort zone.”
- “The week was filled with learning, growth, and adventure. It encouraged me to step up, step out, and discover more about myself while gaining valuable skills for my career.”
- “The program gave me new perspectives, practical tools, and a supportive environment. I’d recommend it to anyone seeking personal development.”
- “The residential week was the cherry on top of the whole Step Up program- bigger than the cake itself! I came back with greater self-awareness and clarity on where to focus.”
- “It gave me knowledge, confidence, and the mindset shift I needed to keep moving beyond my comfort zone.”
This week wasn’t just about adventure, it was about:
- Stepping outside comfort zones
- Building confidence and leadership skills
- Gaining powerful insights for personal and career growth
A huge congratulations to everyone who embraced the challenge- returning stronger, braver, and ready to lead!
