Many children attending our camps do not know other children and part of attending Activate Camps is developing new friends. However, we do our best to accommodate friend requests made prior to arriving on camp. Due to camp numbers and ratios this is not always possible.
We aim for ratios of 1:8 for children aged 5-7, 1:12 for children aged 8-10 and 1:15 for children aged 11+
Please call our customer service team on 0121 227 4385 and they will get in touch with the camp manager on your behalf.
All our venues are Ofsted registered and regulated to ensure we meet all necessary requirements. Each venue has its own unique registration number. If you require this number please email info@activatecamps.co.uk with your request.
In response to the unique challenge of Covid-19, we have developed and tested Covid-19 specific operating procedures. These will be integrated into our standard operating procedures and combined into staff training to ensure the safety of our children, parents and staff.
If a camp is cancelled due to Covid-19 you will have the option to receive credit towards a future camp or receive a full refund.
To ensure we meet group ratios some camps have reduced numbers therefore it is advisable to book early to avoid disappointment. If Activate Camps cancels the camp, then you are entitled to a full refund.
Children will be required to sanitise their hands when they arrive and reminded to wash their hands throughout the day. We will undertake regular cleaning of equipment. To ensure everyone has fun in a safe environment our staff will supervise handwashing, monitor children for signs of infection and make sure that we are complying with the latest government guidance.
