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
Group Leaders create a fun, welcoming and supportive environment for children aged 6–9. By
delivering engaging activities, building positive relationships and providing excellent supervision,
they help every child feel safe, included and excited to take part in camp life. Through clear
