About Camp Jojo

Camp Jojo runs accessible camping for families with a child with complex disabilities. Each camp involves a small community of 60-65 people, at one of our beautiful and dedicated farm sites, with a small army of volunteers and a lot of specialist disability equipment – all supporting the families.

Families coming to the camps have been extremely positive about what it offers them – access to an experience that they can not ordinarily access, despite it being a common family experience for other families.

We have wanted to scale up our delivery year on year, as demand is so great, holding 10 camps over summer, allowing more families to experience camping accessibility. We continue to be very heavily oversubscribed.

Camp Jojo is currently a small/medium sized charity with a committed team of Trustees, Advisors, and Volunteers. However it is growing; and this post is a chance to contribute to a dynamic organisation, and work towards growth in a supportive environment.

Overview

Usually working in pairs, family volunteers are assigned to a family to support them all to enjoy their holiday. This includes parents and siblings too! You might be taking the children to do activities whilst the parents have a break, you might be helping them at meal times, with personal care, and generally being a spare pair of hands, or being a supportive listening ear.

Please note, volunteers will never be left alone with a child, and are not permitted to administer medication. Parental responsibility remains with parents at all times.

Please be aware that we may need you to be flexible in your role, as the need of families or other volunteers may change at short notice. As part of the team, you will work together and follow directions from camp leaders to ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience.

Date: 14th - 16th August 2026

*All volunteers need to commit to the whole weekend, to be on site from Friday morning for training until Sunday afternoon to clear up the site after families leave.

Requirements

Previous experience supporting children with complex needs or life-limiting conditions. This can be either professional or informal experience.
A willingness to learn, support the team and get stuck in
be available from Friday morning until Sunday afternoon

We provide the following training:

Safeguarding
Manual handling
An introduction to camp
All volunteers receive support from the camp leader
First-time volunteers will be partnered with an experienced volunteer
We also have volunteer WhatsApp groups for onsite coordination

All volunteers need a valid DBS check prior to attending camp.

If you don’t have a DBS check, Camp JoJo will help you to apply and join the update service (renewed annually). This will be at no cost to you and will enable digital access to your DBS status.

All volunteers are responsible to help us keep families, children and each other safe during camps. We have a number of Policies that we must all understand and follow to maintain a safe environment for everyone.

For safety, all families and volunteers are asked to stay onsite for the duration of camp.
