Yes, all of our camps are fully insured.
All our coaching staff are fully certified first aiders and also hold their advanced paediatric fist aid qualification as well. So, if your child has an accident we will be able to tend to them.
Parents/guardians are responsible for determining their child’s ability to actively participate in the daily activities. If your child is ill and unable to attend camp please notify our team on 07709785413.
Please do not send ill children to camp. While we sympathise with the needs of each parent and their child, we must provide a healthy environment for everyone at the camp. A sick child often needs one-on-one attention and it is difficult for our coaches to take the necessary time away from activities. We have instituted this policy based on the wishes and opinions of our parents, to avoid any confusion over the health and well being of your children.
Unfortunately, if your child is ill we cannot offer a refund.
YES, OF COURSE THEY CAN. If your child has a bad allergy or a medical condition please stipulate this on your booking form, we will do our best to accommodate the needs of your child. It is also advisable that you discuss this with the camp manager on your first day of arrival. If your child has a nut allergy, this is not a problem as we have a nut free policy at our camps. Coloured bands will be given out to those that have allergies when they arrive in the morning for sign-in. Please ensure that this action is repeated each day.
All medical information is confidential and attention will not be drawn to the condition. Where necessary, details will be passed to the group coach for safety purposes.
We do our best to return lost items, there will be a rail that at our entrance where we hang up all lost property, please check this before leaving camp. Lost property will be left at the venue for ease of collection.
Please ensure that clothes and belongings are clearly labelled with your child’s full name. Due to the nature of our activities, we recommend that children do not wear their best or most expensive clothing for camp.
Please note we are unable to keep and hold lost property once camp has finished. We send all left over items to local charity shops.
Most of our payments are done online through the booking form. You can opt to do a BACS transfer at a later date but this must be done before your child attends camp. We do not offer a card facility payment at our camps.
Yes, if you need to contact your child during camp, call us on 07709785413.
Yes of course, just let us know with as much notice as possible by contacting us via email at info@summer-in-the-city.co.uk
Most children who come to camp don’t know anyone but they quickly make new friends on their first day, we will ensure that they are not alone and help to integrate them with campers of a similar age. If your child has friends already at camp then it is possible for them to be put in the same group.
We have access to outdoor facilities at every one of our venues, we will get the children outside as much as possible (weather permitting!), so please bring shoes for both indoor and outdoor activities and appropriate clothes for the weather.
No, we offer a day rate so your child can come as many or as few times as they want during the week.
The youngest child we take is age 4 and the oldest is 13.
For children aged 13+ we run our CHAMPIONS programme. This is a volunteering programme where the CHAMPION will be given a uniform and responsibility to assist coaches. This involves setting up equipment and activities, assisting in our sanitising procedures and helping coaches. This can go towards volunteering requirements for CV, Duke of Edinburgh or other applications. Our CHAMPIONS programme teaches responsibility and encourages a hard work ethic whilst still having fun as part of a team.
We will never leave a child on their own so if you are late, we will stay with them. If you know you will be late, try to let us know by contacting the team on 07709785413.
We expect any summer in the city child to show respect and courtesy. We operate a strictly no bullying policy and offenders will be dealt with by camp directors. We wish each child to have a great experience and therefore bullying will not be tolerated.
Children must be signed in and out on arrival and departure by nominated guardians. If however, they are allowed to move to and from camp independently then please let us know.
We are very active on social media! All of our social media platforms post regular updates, photos and videos from camp. We also post our Friday dress up theme here to allow extra preparation. Please note you can specify on our booking form if you do not wish your child to be photographed.

We currently operate a no refund policy. This is because we regularly have to turn families and campers away as we are often fully booked, particularly during the summer months. Anything you don’t use however, will be kept in credit for you so that families do not lose out on what they have paid for.
During our summer camp we have our SUPER spectacular extravaganza day on the second last Friday of camp! This runs at all of our venues. This day is full of extra fun . In the past, we have had a colour run with a live DJ, balloons and dance parties. We have also had bouncy castles and inflatable assault courses with ice cream vans and much more. Each year we will let you know what we are doing for our extravaganza day. It sells out very quickly so advisable to book early to avoid disappointment.
