What Is Diabetes Research & Wellness Foundation Camp in the Cloud?

Diabetes Research & Wellness Foundation Camp in the Cloud (DRWF CitC) is a one‑day, at‑home virtual camp designed especially for families on a type 1 diabetes journey.

It brings the mischief and magic of Over The Wall Camp straight to your living room through games, activities, and live sessions where you can connect with other families just like yours!

This awesome experience is delivered in partnership with DRWF, who are a charity dedicated to supporting people living with diabetes and funding research to find a cure.

Together, we’re proud to offer a fun and inclusive family experience where connection grows, laughter is guaranteed, and imagination has no limits!

FAQs

What do we need for the day?

Not much at all! Just a device with internet access, the family resource pack we’ll send to you, and a spot in your home to join the fun. We’ll bring the mischief and magic - you bring yourselves and be ready to get creative!

What if we're camera shy?

That’s ok! You’re welcome to join with your camera off and ease into the experience at your own pace. Whether you’re camera-confident or camera-cautious, your family is in for a seriously fun day!

Who delivers the activities?

All sessions are run by trained Over The Wall Camp staff and volunteers, supported by our friends at DRWF who will be with you throughout the day too.

Do adults need to stay for the whole day?

Camp in the Cloud is a whole family experience. Everyone is encouraged to join in, get creative and enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!

We know that life can be unpredictable. Just let us know as soon as you can so we can offer your place to another family. You can reach us at campers@otw.org.uk or 0133 297 7589.
