Teammate - Scotland Residential Camp

About this event

Volunteers are an essential part of bringing our camps to life, and Teammates play the crucial role of supporting campers and families throughout their time with us. The Teammate’s role is to provide supervision, encouragement and enthusiasm from the moment campers wake in the morning to when they go to bed!

Volunteering details

Support all aspects of camp programming which can look like leading games, performing skits, joining in camp dances and songs, and generally bringing a sense of joy and play to all aspects of camp. In a 5 day residential, support a cabin group of up to 12 campers. In a weekend family camp, support a family group--ensuring campers and families feel welcome, valued and included at all times. Get to know each camper individually and provide the support they need to help them have a safe camp.

Travel details

Our camps are based in Strathallan School in Perth. Volunteers often drive to the school itself, or get a train to Perth train station where we run a free pick-up and drop-off service.

Travel expenses
