Leaders in Outdoor Experiential Learning

About Us

Team Building at BACABOUT BAC

the Belfast Activity Centre (BAC) has evolved since 1989 to become a leading Northern Ireland Charity that delivers personal and social development primarily to young people.

Through experiential learning and reflective evaluation, the BAC provides educational opportunities alongside outdoor adventure activities. It is here that we achieve our vision, “Changing Lives, Building Futures” in co-operation with over 15’000 young people annually.

Through dynamic and innovative programmes, the BAC aims to challenge, stimulate and motivate young people from a broad range of backgrounds to help them identify and realise their full potentials. Our core projects engage young people considered at most disadvantage, socially and economically and include longer-term programmes to support disability access and participation, work with young people from severely disadvantaged communities and projects focused upon supporting young carers, lone parents and their families and young homeless.

The BAC's Mission is...

... to provide world-class personal development opportunities that will change lives and build futures through outdoor experiential learning.

"Changing Lives, Building Futures"

The BAC's Vision is...

... to be the leading centre of excellence in the personal development of young people.
