What is a Sibling Camp?

Siblings Camp is a FREE residential camp for children and young people who have a sibling living with a health challenge.

It’s a place where siblings are the focus. A chance to meet other young people who understand, try new things, make friends and enjoy all the mischief and magic of camp.

And when we say camp, we don’t mean tents! Campers stay in comfortable accommodation, with meals, activities and medical and wellbeing support all provided.

Who Can Come to a Sibling Challenge Camp?

Our Sibling camps are for young people, aged 8 – 17, with a sibling aged 0 – 17 who has a health challenge.

We offer Sibling camps for different age groups, so you can find the right adventure for you.
