We run free, activity camps to help children affected by illness

Story

Over the Wall runs magical camps for children with challenging illnesses, their siblings and their families. The camps are built on the concept of therapeutic recreation – the creation of an environment where everyone sets their own challenges and achieve them.

With this in mind, Rebecca Rich and I have decided to challenge ourselves to cycle the 350km across the south of England and north France to reach Paris from our base in London.

Camp has been a huge part of my life since I was 11 – I attended three camps as a sibling and have returned each year as volunteer since 2010. Rebecca and Richard got involved with Over the Wall through a team building day I organised to support the charity. It was their idea to combine their passion for cycling with raising money for Over the Wall.

Thank you all for your support!

Love,

Mike

About the charity

Over The Wall

Verified by JustGiving

RCN 1075361
We provide activity camps for children and young people affected by serious illnesses. These young people frequently lack confidence as a result of prolonged and isolating treatment. At camp we create a fun and positive environment where our campers can act their age without worrying about their illnesses. In the presence of others facing similar challenges, feelings of isolation are overcome, confidence grows and friendships are made.
