The Operations team at Over the Wall is responsible for the planning and day-to-day running of our residential camps. As some of the people there for each magic moment, we wanted to take the time to raise money and awareness for how important camp for children and young people with serious illnesses is.

Did you know, right now, 1 in 10 children are missing out on childhood due to a serious illness or disability and that number is growing? For these children, quality of life is adversely affected by isolation and their inability to participate in many of the everyday activities enjoyed by their friends and peers. This often results in a growing lack of self-esteem and confidence which can become a barrier to future growth and development.

That's where Over The Wall Childrens Charity comes in. Over The Wall is a UK-based charity for children with serious illnesses and disabilities, and their families, to discover a world of mischief and magic. A place where they can be brave and have fun with others. These amazing places are physical in residential camps and also available online with Camp in the Cloud and Camp 365. At Over The Wall, they can leave their everyday challenges behind, and remember what it is to be a child.
