Summer camps

Every year in the summer holidays the HDA has summer camps in Mepal, the New Forest and Kielder with a JHD weekend in Keswick. These are weekend camps for children aged 9 to 16. It’s a chance to get away, make some friends and do some activities you might not have done before.

Here are what some people said about camp….

“I loved the HDA summer camp, we did climbing, abseiling and canoeing. My favourite things were swimming with a view of the forest, the zip line and the King swing. We even had a go at the velcro Olympics, where you wear a velcro suit and get stuck to a bouncy castle obstacle course. There was even a pool table that we spent ages on too.” Zoe, Age 10

And…

“I loved summer camp because we all ignored HD for a weekend and just had fun.” Chris, 12

If you would like to go to summer camp next year ask an adult to contact our Head Office on 0151 331 5444 or email us at info@hda.org.uk and they will be able to send out a form about the camp.
