When did you join People Outdoors as a Volunteer and why?
I became a volunteer at the end of 2021. I had heard many great things about People Outdoors and I thought I would give it a go. I love to empower and support others. Camp is a wonderful environment where campers can be themselves.
What are your favourite activities on camp?
My favourite activity is any of the water activities. I love to go canoeing
What is your favourite memory of camp you have made so far?
I think my favourite camp memory would be when we went canoeing and we accidentally fell in. We all had great time splashing around as it was a warm day.
What would you say to people interested in volunteering with People Outdoors?
Give it go. People Outdoors is a great community. Camp is so much fun and very rewarding.
Camp is an amazing opportunity to go for an adventure and spend some time outdoors. People Outdoors provides an opportunity to make friends, engage in a variety of activities and enjoy what the outdoors has to offer. Operating under the NDIS scheme, People Outdoors offers a range of camp experiences.
