Retreats
Retreats are a great way to spend quality time with individuals and provide an opportunity to engage in amazing activities and deliver memorable experiences.
Project Nile recognises the importance of providing such opportunities for young people and adults alike with the benefits of such retreats being invaluable.
We provide two types of retreats
RESIDENTIALS
We pride ourselves on having initiated many retreats involving young people and parents to a wide range of venues. Our retreats primarily include two nights of stay, filled with some very exciting activities. These have included Climbing, Abseiling, Canoeing, High Ropes, Zip Wire, Assault Course, Archery, Fencing, Campfires, Raft Building, Football, and other sports, as well as many more.
These activities broaden the horizons for participants and provide lifelong memorable experiences. We have found that the self-esteem of participants is also really developed through these experiences. In addition to providing physical activities, our leaders also provide workshops and reminders on various topics relating to the participants.
I'tikahf programme
(Spiritual retreat in the Mosque)
Our immensely popular I’tikahf programme provides a great opportunity for young people to get out of their comfort zone and mix with people from different backgrounds as well have a truly amazing spiritual experience.
With a detailed itinerary over 2 days, attendees will certainly appreciate the educational, spiritual and physical benefits.
