Go Ape Senior Sales Manager, George Nolan, said, “We are extremely proud and honoured to be nominated for best UK attraction at this year's STA's. To be recognised in this way as a leading UK outdoor activity destination for children considering the amount of other fantastic attractions, is an achievement in itself.
“Go Ape have always been passionate about delivering memorable experiences and helping children to develop their confidence and resilience through school trips.”
The School Travel Editor and organiser of the Awards, Keeley Rodgers, said: “Learning outside the classroom needs to play an integral part of a child’s education. It isn’t just a nice extra to have at the end of term but vital when it comes to developing a range of life skills.
“Through the School Travel Awards, teachers and EVCs are able to highlight their favourite attractions, experiences and providers for school trips - and it also helps recognise what’s best for others too.
"Anyone that has made the shortlist can be very proud of their achievement given the choice and quality now available for schools and educational organisations.”
