What I liked
ESW Respite camp is a summer camp for people of all ages with differing abilities. I loved the inclusive environment and the “can do” attitude of all the staff. Everything was accessible and capers were able to try new things in a safe environment.
What I wish was different
We worked long hours, with very little breaks but it was al worth it at the end of the week.
Advice
Get outside your comfort zone and help people reach goals they may have thought were impossible. #camppossible
