We are sorry to announce that the 2021 event is cancelled
We are really sorry to announce, for a second year, that due to coronavirus we are unable to stage the Apex Challenge in October 2021 as previously planned.
After the disappointment of being unable to hold an event in 2020, the whole Apex team was really hoping to return this autumn. Sadly, that just isn’t possible.

What is the Apex Challenge?
There is nothing else quite like an Apex Challenge weekend. It’s a unique adventure competition that you don’t want to miss.
Over the three days you will be tested with some of the toughest activities at any Scout competition.
Meeting teams from all across the British Isles you’ll make memories that last forever.
