To give an idea of the kind of projects the AFMT supports, a few are outlined below:
- A grant of £800 for a primary school class in a deprived part of Manchester to spend a week at an outdoor centre in Lancashire
- Funding for a climbing wall to be built in a special needs school in Liverpool
- Money for an initiative by Carlisle firefighters to take ‘last-chance’ teenagers on a climbing and personal development course
- Funding for a school trip climbing and hiking in Germany by young people on Merseyside
- Financial support for two brothers to attend an Outward Bound course they could not otherwise have afforded
