Wetherby District Lions were pleased to support a large-scale Scout adventure event which took place at Bramham Park 7th – 9th October. The Apex Challenge saw 400 young people aged 14-18 descend on the estate for a weekend-long adventure competition.

During the competition they had to complete tough challenges such as canoeing, mountain biking, skill games and assault courses while competing against other teams from across the UK. There was also time to enjoy the entertainment with a live band playing late into Saturday night.

Wetherby Lions supported the event with a donation towards the hire cost of a marquee to make the event possible.

Event Director Matt Richards said, “We’re really grateful to Wetherby District Lions for their very kind support. It meant we could run this fantastic weekend for so many young people. After two years away due to Covid-19 restrictions, it has been great to be able to bring this event back for 2022. Thanks so much for your support.”
