Summer camps give children of all ages the opportunity to try new activities and sports or develop skills they already have. Camps vary tremendously, from the residential weeklong variety that offers a range of activities, to a day’s course in a particular sport or art. There are hundreds to choose from across the United Kingdom, many of which are listed in the following directories:
You may wish to enrol your child in a summer camp abroad. The most popular destination is America, where far more children attend summer camp. Many of the major camps are listed on the Kids’ Camps website. You can search the extensive network of camps by interest or location.
Both the Scout Association and Girlguiding UK run camps for the different age groups of their organisations. Your child’s unit will be able to inform you of up-and-coming camp arrangements.
See the Arts and Sports offerings in our Leisure section if your child would be interested in pursuing a special interest in the summer break.
