Introduction

The summer camps are specially designed programmes where children with a serious illness can attend, have some fun and meet other children from all over Europe. 

These summer camps take place from June to August. The countries we welcome during these camps are Spain, Germany, Hungary, Sweden, Greece, Italy, the UK, and Ireland

Volunteers arrive for 9am the first morning for training and team building before the campers arrive. You will be assigned to work with a cottage group and activity group. New volunteers are paired with a returning volunteer for guidance.
