Over The Wall Residential Health Challenge and Siblings Camp
Let Over The Wall help children and young people reach beyond the boundaries of health challenges to discover a world of mischief, magic and new possibilities.
The combined Health Challenge and Siblings camps at Over The Wall are for children and young people aged 8-17 with a health challenge and/or their siblings. We also welcome children and young people who have been off treatment for up to three years.
This camp is designed specifically for children and young people, allowing them to meet new friends, accomplish new challenges and, above all, have fun!
It’s a four-night residential activity camp packed full of new and exciting challenges to help children and young people grow and step out of their comfort zone.
This is the perfect opportunity for children and young people with a health challenge (and their siblings!) to meet and have fun with other people like them.
Residential Camp Activities
At our Health Challenge and Siblings Camps, the campers can enjoy a variety of different activities such as Archery, Climbing, Zip Wire, Arts & Crafts and Games whilst in their age-appropriate teams.
Medical Care
Residential camps are held in a medically safe environment. The team of volunteers includes doctors, paramedics, and nurses, meaning families are suitably supported with medical assistance on hand if required.
We try our best not to interrupt all the amazing activities that the children are taking part in, so all the activities are purposefully adapted around the camper’s needs, such as common medication times, at breakfast and after dinner. There is medical support throughout the day at Beach Hut, so we are always on hand if needed.
We will work closely with parents and families to make sure we can safely meet the medical needs of each child whilst at camp. We provide “home-from-home” care at camp, as well as responding to all emergencies.
Dietary requirements discussed throughout your application will be catered for.
Over The Wall Camps are 100% Free of Charge
Over The Wall camps are fully funded by our generous donors and fundraisers, meaning our camps are 100% fun and 100% free, for everyone, all of the time.
Transport
To help you get to camp, we have transport support options from London, Bristol and Southampton. Please note that not all transport is guaranteed, but we will do our very best to support your journey.
Application Deadline
We reserve the right to close applications for this camp once we receive sufficient applications. Therefore, if you are interested, please submit your application as early as possible.
Allergy Applications
Unfortunately, we have filled our allocated allergy place and we are no longer accepting children/young people with serve allergies, that require the use of an adrenaline auto-injector (EpiPen/Jext). We do still have Camp In the Cloud places available if you are interested.
