About Us
Safety and Security
The safety and security of our challengers is our utmost priority. Prior to any participation by the public, each of our Challenge Events has been tried and tested by one of the GAC Team.
Exceptional Leadership
Each of our Charity Challenges is lead by either by an experienced Expedition Leader from the UK or an English Speaking Professional at the destination. All Expedition Leaders from the UK are trained in Expedition Emergency Rescue Care First Aid and all Challenges are equipped with full comprehensive medical kits. We also have UK doctors that join most of our Challenges, depending on destination.
Unlike many other event operators, GAC funds annual Medic Training for each of our Expedition Leaders to ensure they are up-to-date with the latest protocols in Emergency Expedition Rescue Care.

Communication Aids
Global Adventure Challenges own Satellite Telephones – these are carried with groups where there is no mobile phone signal ensuring we are always in contact with the local emergency services.
24hr support in UK
For every event, there is a dedicated 24 hr emergency contact within the UK.
Risk Assessments
Prior to any public participation, full Risk Assessments take place and these are readily available on request.
ATOL 6506
Global Adventure Challenges hold an Air Travel Organisers License issued by the Civil Aviation Authority. ATOL is 
a protection scheme for overseas air packages and flights managed by the Civil Aviation Authority (“CAA”). All tour operators and travel firms selling overseas air packages and flights in the UK as a principal are required by law to hold a licence called an Air Travel Organiser’s Licence (“ATOL”). ATOL protects you from losing money or being stranded abroad if a tour operator goes out of business. If a licensed firm goes out of business, the CAA can give refunds to people who can’t travel and arrange for people abroad to fly home. Your participant safety is our number one priority.
