FSC runs some camps suitable for active children with special needs due to learning difficulties or physical disabilities (Camps 5, 7 and 20).

We also integrate these children into other camps wherever possible. We can advise parents, guardians or sponsors which camp would be the most suitable for a particular child. We realise that children with disabilities may need a dedicated staff member at camp.

If parents or sponsors feel that their child with disabilities would enjoy camping, we ask them not to let the cost deter them from applying, as FSC may be able to arrange financial assistance. Camp 20 is substantially subsidised by FSC and run specifically for members with learning difficulties.

Parents or sponsors of children with special needs should apply directly to the special needs officers:

Social workers, teachers, care workers, foster parents and others wishing to enrol children who would benefit from our camps should also contact the special needs officers.
