About Dukes Barn

Dukes Barn Outdoor Activity Centre is an educational trust that offers a range of adventurous activities for individuals of all ages and abilities.

Located in Beeley, on the Chatsworth Estate, in the Peak District National Park, the Centre provides a safe and challenging environment for children with special needs, including Autism, Asperger’s, Downs Syndrome, hearing or sight impairments, and physical disabilities. Additionally, Dukes Barn offers courses for primary and secondary school children and those from disadvantaged backgrounds or poor inner-city areas.

Through their outdoor activities, children develop greater awareness of self and the needs of others, improve their physical fitness, and boost their confidence and self-esteem, equipping them to face the challenges of everyday life.

All activities are conducted in Derbyshire and are carefully planned to cater to the specific needs and abilities of the group, with all necessary specialist equipment provided.
