Notes

Camp Quality will hold approximately 185 recreational camps and recreational activities this year throughout Australia for children living with cancer and their families.

The majority of these camps are based on recreational experiences like horse riding and abseiling in the summer and skiing in the winter months. The camps last from two to seven days. Each camp is fully funded by the organisation, including the cost of the companions (adult volunteers). At camp each child is assigned a companion ensuring that each child receives the highest quality of care.

In particular our camping program provides a wonderfully unique opportunity for a child with cancer to put their illness behind them for a few days and concentrate on being a child again. Most importantly it provides them with fun and happiness, as "Laughter really is the Best Medicine".
