Ulley Activity Centre has temporarily relocated to Thrybergh Country Park due to the ongoing repair work at Ulley reservoir. The repair work is needed after the flood damage of June 2007 and means we will be operating from Thrybergh Country Park until further notice.
Thrybergh Country Park is situated four miles north of Rotherham town centre on the A630 Doncaster Road.The centre has access to the parks reservoir and surrounding countryside, which means Ulley Activity Centre can provide a wide range of wet and dry activities.The centre itself is non-residential, providing showers and changing facilities.
Activity Programmes are managed by Rotherham Outdoor Education Services. The Senior Worker for Outdoor Education is available to discuss each organisation’s requirements and devise programmes to meet their needs. Pre-visit inspections can be arranged for staff, please contact the Senior Worker for Outdoor Education.Activities are covered by the Adventure Activities Licensing Authority (AALA) licence No R0410.
