Working in partnership with Snow Camp we have been able to provide young people across our Youth Zones with experiences they will never forget and enables them to achieve more than they ever thought was possible, raising their aspirations, learning new skills and developing a strong sense of self belief. It’s a partnership we value hugely and we hope will grow and flourish into the future.
Kathryn Morley CEO, OnSide Youth ZonesAt Snow Camp, we believe that every young person deserves the opportunity to experience the mountains and develop essential life skills through the power of snowsports. But none of this would be possible without the right gear - ensuring young people feel comfortable, prepared, and ready to take on new challenges on and off the slope. That’s where our incredible partners Dare 2b come in.
