Our new exciting school holiday camp programme for young people!

What is Camp Sandcastle?

Camp Sandcastle lets children aged 5-15* make new friends and discover new talents throughout the school holidays. We accept children from all backgrounds and walks of life who come together to form new positive friendships, learn new skills, and build confidence.

Sessions are action-packed, adventure driven and experience-focused to engage young people.

 

We believe children with the opportunities to learn through interactive experiences delivered by our role model Camp Leaders will make healthier choices as they grow into adults. Campers receive awards and certificates for demonstrating the four core values of YMCA – Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility.

*We can only accept 5-year olds from the 1st September after their 5th Birthday
