Camp
Our annual three-day overnight camp is a fully accessible adventure designed especially for children living with neuromuscular conditions. It’s a chance for kids to try new things, build friendships and grow their confidence in a fun, safe and supportive environment.
Designed for school-aged children with higher care needs, the camp removes many of the barriers that can make it difficult to attend traditional camps. With experienced staff and 24-hour on site support workers. Every child deserves to feel protected, respected and valued. You can read more about our commitment to child safety here.
Across the three days, campers enjoy a range of inclusive activities such as team games, wildlife encounters, arts and crafts, cultural experiences and outdoor adventures - all thoughtfully adapted to suit different abilities.
For many children, it’s their first time staying away from home or connecting with peers who share similar experiences. It’s a special opportunity to build independence, make friends and create lasting memories.
School aged siblings are welcome!
