Staff & Leaders’ Weekend

17th - 19th October
at The Highball Centre, Shepherd House, Hanley Swan, WR8 0DX.

For anyone who hasn’t been to staff weekend before - they’re a lot of fun!

It’s a brilliant chance to catch up withe people you might have trained or worked with, meet other leaders, Assistant Directors and Directors, and get to talk about all the fun and challenges you experienced at camp with people who know and understand all the funny quirks and get the jokes, and understand just how much hard work and just how much fun working on summer camps can be. We also use these weekends to offer additional training to keep everyone best equipped for their continued work on summer camps.

We will ensure you get plenty of chance to discuss how camp went this summer, to feedback any success or challenges you experienced, and to ask any questions that you didn’t know to ask on your training course.

And there will be lots of fun new games and activities to learn, along with the opportunity to get and write down all the rules to those games you now wish you’d written down better on your training course, after you swore you knew you’d remember them (we’ve all been there)

There’ll also be plenty of chance to catch up, chill out, play games with no children to worry about, meet other leaders, and generally have a lovely time.

Arrival is Friday evening - there will be no planned activities that night so that no one will miss out if they have a long travel.
The weekend will finish after lunch on the Sunday.

Nearest train station is Great Malvern - lifts to and from will be available.

The Summer Camps Trust heavily subsidises the cost of the weekend, you will need to make your own travel arrangements, and we ask for a contribution of £25 towards catering and accommodation*.

We may be able to waive your contribution, and if you let us know where you are travelling from, we can see if there is anyone you could share a lift with.
