UPCOMING YOUTH CAMP: Our North Island IGNITE youth camp is now open for applications! Keep reading for more details …
WHAT: IGNITE is an adventure therapy youth camp, where we combine ADVENTURE (kayaking, bush walking, high ropes, etc.) with THERAPY (like group activities and facilitated discussions, one-on-one chats with our caring instructors), with time and space built in for rest, reflection, and spending time outdoors in nature with its proven therapeutic benefits.
WHY: This camp is aimed at young people who might be struggling at the moment – maybe with anxiety, stress, depression, or other mental health challenges.
WHERE: We will be based at an adventure camp in Ahuroa (north of Auckland) with one overnight camping trip during the week (there is also a South Island camp, check our website for more info).
WHO: Young adults (aged 15-18 years old). We have extremely limited spaces so please get in touch sooner rather than later! Our staff will include a qualified mental health professional and one or two highly experienced outdoor instructors.
WHEN: The IGNITE camp happens most school holidays. The next one is during the September school holidays. Five days of fun! Monday 25th – Friday 29th September 2023.
