Wind Sand & Stars is proud to be part of Wilderness Expertise. Wilderness Expertise Ltd incorporates two other brands that offer high quality experiences for school groups that develop an awareness of our world, its people and cultures, and ourselves;

Wilderness Expertise specialises in providing overseas personal development expeditions for students aged 12 to 18. The expeditions help those involved realise their potential in a safe, supportive and exhilarating environment. They have an excellent reputation and are committed to staying small –  only working with a maximum of 30 teams per year, allowing them to retain strong links with all the schools they work with and provide the highest quality experience from start to finish. Above all, the WE team are passionate about what they do and this enthusiasm is catching!

Inspire Worldwide specialises in setting up school links, providing the opportunity to support and take part in hands-on, sustainable, community development projects.  The projects are perfectly suited to schools who want to offer their students something different and want them to develop cultural understanding, global awareness and make a sustainable and long-term impact. Inspire offers you the chance to develop a long-term partnership between your school and one of our pre-vetted partner charities, or to develop an existing link you might already hold.
