AALA Licencing

The Adventure Activities licencing service is the body that is responsible for the issueing of adventure activities licences on behalf of the Health and Safety Executive to outdoor opprators that wish to work with young people unsupervised in the outdoors.

Highland Activities hold a current AALA licence and have had since 2009. This means that we are inspected once per year and our plocies, proceedures, staff and equipment are all looked at. This also gives Highland Activities to keep up to date with current best practice in the industry.
