Our holiday camp is ‘twinned’ with the Shoe4Africa Children’s hospital in Eldoret, Kenya. We send them videos and resources of our activities and use a percentage of our takings to buy equipment to allow them to replicate our programmes.

All coaches working on the Summer Camp are qualified and insured to work with children, each holding an up-to-date DBS certificate (formerly CRB). They all have experience working with younger age groups and have been especially selected both for their coaching abilities and professional yet friendly and caring manner with children.
Ofsted regulations state that childcare can only be offered to under 5 year olds for half a day. Please contact us to discuss alternative arrangements should you require care for a full day.
Prior to your child’s participation in the camp we ask you to review the following documents below and to complete the necessary forms where indicated. Many thanks.

Do you have to book the whole week?
No 🙂 We allow total flexibility with the days and times (full/half-days) you book. It may pay to note that you get 15% off if you book 5+ days across any number of children.
Once my child has chosen the group they wish to participate in (sporty or creative), do they have to stay in that group the whole day?
No. We just ask that they stay in their group once they’ve chosen an activity. But with our flexible register system, they are able to change groups at each break time.
What happens if the weather is bad?
We are able to adapt the schedule to cater for indoor activities, but we tend to find that children don’t mind playing in the rain! As such, please make sure that you pack suitable clothing for the forecast. Thanks!
Do you accept childcare vouchers?
Unfortunately not. In order to qualify we have to be Ofsted registered and, as members of the public can use the facilities, we don’t meet their criteria.
Can I change my booking?
Yes! It is possible for you to manage your own booking by logging into your account on our booking system and selecting ‘Ticket Options’ (we can also do it for you if you struggle). There is no charge for changing your booking but any changes must be made at least one week before camp. It is also possible for you to cancel your bookings. Any outstanding balances will be refunded in line with our terms and conditions.
We welcome all enquiries about our camps. Please contact Becky on 07855 943236 or info@tryumphinlife.com for any additional details you require.
