Our mission is:

Metro services are accessible to all We are able to reach young people in a way that is not intimidating, is relationship based and non-confrontational. In this manner we are able to support a range of young people from organisations who may not traditionaly have access to adventure education.
We have a very large area of operation encompassing the whole of Scotland and indeed further afield. For the young people we work with however, even the Ochills, Campsies or country parks can provide an opportunity for adventure within the realms of their experience, and recognition of this is a key part of the work of Metro.
The courses we deliver range from short days, within school hours to multi day residentials and expeditions. Inclusive to all of our courses is transport to and from your location, qualified and experienced instructors and all relevant safety equipment. Your course may also include additional instructors and the use of our extensive stores for waterproofs, boots etc.
