In what feels like very difficult time for outdoor education generally the week has begun with more difficult news. Calvert Devon and its 30 + year legacy of providing opportunities for people with a disability to participate in outdoor activities is to close at the end of the month.

Calvert Devon will close its doors at the end of August 2026. After more than 30 years of providing life-changing outdoor experiences for people of all abilities, Calvert Devon will close its doors at the end of August 2026.
