Become a camp Doctor or Nurse

We cannot run our unique camps without the dedication and commitment that our medical volunteers give in abundance. Volunteering at an Over The Wall camp is great fun and hard work. The rewards at the end of the week can be immense. Seeing the difference in the campers after just one week can be amazing and tremendously satisfying. Time spent at camp makes a difference to the volunteers, too! You will learn a lot about yourself, meet like-minded people and make new friends!

It is the Volunteer Medical Team at camp who directly care for our Campers.
