Update: We’re sad to announce that we won’t be running our regular summer camp in 2025.

We’ve had some changes in our youth team and our amazing new members are still finding their feet. We’re also facing financial challenges across the charity sector, and have had to make some hard decisions to ensure we can keep on doing our best work at Gendered Intelligence.

We’ll still be running summer activities for our youth groups, and of course, we will be there for Pride!

We hope to return to camp in 2026, and we’ll always keep the fire burning for trans young people.

If you’d like information, support or to suggest alternative activities for summer, please email youthwork@genderedintelligence.co.uk.

Since 2010, we've taken our young people on a weekend camping trip. It’s an annual opportunity to take part in lots of fun activities and spend time with other young trans and non-binary people. At the camp, you get to join in with activities like raft building or archery, make your own food, share stories around a campfire, and sleep in a tent. Our camps are suitable for experienced campers as well as people who have never slept in a tent before. We can also provide some indoor sleeping options for those who have particular access needs.

Our residentials, trips and summer camp are all free of charge, and travel bursaries are available.

It was a magical experience & I really miss it. I had lots of laughs too and I gained a lot of personal benefits from camp...Camp was one of the most amazing weeks of my life so far

I’ve felt like I have a really safe and happy thing to think about whenever I feel upset or overwhelmed. Having those memories of amazing times at camp has been so important to me
