procedures including safer recruitment practices, staff should play an active role in creating a supportive, safe and
protective environment for call children and young people

About us
Barracudas is the UK’s leading provider of children’s holiday camps, helping young people build
confidence, develop new skills and make new friends through a wide range of activities. With 45+
camp locations across the UK, we offer exciting programmes including Sports, Arts & Crafts, Drama
and more. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment where every child feels
supported and valued. Safeguarding and wellbeing are at the heart of everything we do.

Role Purpose

1:1 Support Staff play a vital role in helping children with additional needs feel safe, included and

confident at camp. By using personalised strategies, building positive relationships and providing

consistent, individual support, they help each child take part in activities, connect with their group

and enjoy a positive camp experience. Through clear communication, patient guidance and strong

supervision, they ensure the child can grow in confidence, make progress and get the most out of

their time at Barracudas.

confidence.

the child understand instructions and expectations.

6. Maintain the child’s welfare, monitoring their emotional, social and physical needs and

responding appropriately.

7. Communicate with parents/guardians at registration and collection, providing clear, professional

10. Ensure safe use of equipment during all activities the child attends.

11. Carry out additional duties as required, in line with the needs of the child and the wider camp.
