Education & Learning Partnerships

Turn your existing educational resources into real-world journeys.

Wheelside Adventures is actively looking for schools, educational organisations, charities, heritage bodies, environmental organisations and public-sector partners to bring their existing educational programmes to life through our GPS-guided adventure platform.

Our approach

We don't want to replace what already works. We want to extend it.

Your organisation keeps its existing educational framework, learning objectives and content.

Wheelside provides the route, GPS checkpoints, audio, progression and interactive experience that gets learners out into the real world.

You bring the knowledge.
We build the journey.

A simple partnership model

For selected education partners, the initial opportunity can be little or no upfront cost. Instead, the partnership gives organisations a new way to:

  • Reach more learners
  • Promote their educational programmes
  • Connect learning with real places
  • Increase awareness of their organisation and work
  • Create engaging experiences around existing resources

We are actively looking for partners

Whether you are a school, charity, educational body, heritage organisation, land manager or public-sector organisation, we'd love to explore what could be built together.
