Welcome to the Outdoor Education section of our website. Since our inception in 1977 Up and Under has been the leading supplier to Outdoor Education Centres, Outdoor Activity Centres and many government agenices including; UK wide Police Forces, Fire Brigades and many departments of the Ministry of Defence.
Unlike many outdoor businesses, Up and Under is still owned by the people who founded the business and are not answerable to to shareholders, and yes the owners still do work here on a day to day basis (though not every day).

In this sector of the business, we also have a range of our own braded items, the branding is simply "Up and Under". Keep a look out for the logo in the online catologue.

With close relations to a number of centres we take real life product feedback from the people that count.
Where the products available aren't up to the task we have designed and manufactured specific Outdoor Education purposed clothing and equipment in consultation with a number of Heads of Centres, including products such as our reknowned Centre Cags and Overtrousers and the tried and tested Cordura Universal PFD.

Storm Shelter 800
The Vango Storm Shelter 800 is a eight person emergency bothy, an essential piece of kit for anyone taking part in mountain activities. An emergency shelter provides a quick and reliable shelter in emergency situations or if the weather takes a turn for the worse. When in use, the Storm Shelter creates a warm microclimate in which you can take cover until help arrives or until the worst of the storm passes. It comes in a bright orange reflective design so you will be easy to spot on the hillside should you need to be found by rescue teams.
