Our first year trading as “Bury Active” was an absolute delight. Our new name has made it much easier for people
to identify us. “B Active” continues to be the ethos of our holidays! We look forward to our 16th year of trading
with as much enthusiasm as our first. We offer adults with a learning difficulty the opportunity to experience a
holiday packed with fun and laughter, in an atmosphere that does not compromise their independence. We are a small
company, that offers a personal service! We will continue to do what we have always done; know our customers, help them
to enjoy an amazing holiday in a safe environment and help them to make new friends and feel valued. Kevin and Sue continue
to be at the helm, our style and delivery has not changed. We are offering some new destinations this year, but without a doubt
many of our regulars like us to keep the old favourites, where they are comfortable in what they know and request the specific
activities they would like to include (even the same destinations will offer a different experience from year to year). We will send a
brief diary and a selection of photos at the end of each holiday to help you keep track of what you have been up to.
Thank you so much to all of our “returners” for your loyal support, we have also been lucky enough to have many new holiday-
makers this year, we do hope you will become “returners” too!
If you would like any further information whatsoever about us, our company, the holidays and what we can offer, you may find
it on our website www.buryactive.co.uk or please do not hesitate to call if you prefer. We are always happy to offer advice on
suitability.
