Projects whose timeframe is Residential
Easter & Summer Holidays
We take children from disadvantaged backgrounds aged 10-11 on a 5 day Residential to Silverdale, near Morecambe, for a week filled with fun activities including kayaking, rock climbing and trips to the ZOO!!! We need a team of enthusiastic volunteers to get involved with our residential project, including helping us organise the activities, planning of meals as well as our transport...there's a role for everyone! All volunteers are given training sessions before the holiday, so you'll have plenty of support. It's a chance to make a difference to children's lives as well as having an amazing experience with other volunteers :)
Outdoor Mix
How does a weekend away supporting young people sound? Give some urbanites a chance to do some outdoor activities in the glorious English countryside. Get ready for cycling, climbing, caving, archery and chatting round the campfire. Go on, awe them with your wisdom, story-telling, and marshmallow-toasting skills!
Reach
We take young people aged 12-16 who have learning difficulties away for the weekend. We take them horse riding, swimming, cycling and on farm visits to name just a few of the exciting activities available. Volunteers act as a ‘buddy’ to one young person throughout the weekend, who they are especially responsible for, keeping an eye on them and helping them at meals and bed times. While having a fun filled weekend with a great bunch of kids, you also give their parents a well earned rest too!
