Opportunity description: 

We are a charity providing free residential camps for disabled children since 1962. We are also an Ofsted registered provider of holidays for disabled children and accredited as Outstanding, and a recipient of The Queens Award for Voluntary Service. 
 

Join us for a week-long residential camp that gives disabled children a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Away from home and their main carer, completely free of charge. 

Our camps offer disabled children the chance to build confidence, independence, and joy through unforgettable activities. From campfires and music to abseiling, kayaking, and even flying lessons, every moment is designed to help children achieve things they never thought possible. 

Live in for the week and provide hands-on care, mentoring, and activity support in a safe, nurturing environment. You’ll be part of a dedicated team making magic happen every day. 

We also have opportunities for people to fundraise and promote our charity prior to attending camp, or instead of attending for the full week. 

Training: 

• Training and mentoring will be provided from experienced helpers. 

• An Enhanced DBS for working with children and vulnerable adults. 

• Experience in inclusive care and activity planning. 

Skills and development: 

• A chance to help stage extraordinary events (like our music festival!). 

• A life-changing experience for you and the children you support.
