Snow Camp

Since 2003, Snow Camp has been working with young people in some of the most deprived areas of London, the Midlands, the North West and Scotland. We use us indoor snow centres and artificial slopes to take young people on life changing journeys, building qualifications, apprenticeships and positive careers, with snow sports at the heart of it all. We are a UK charity dedicated to using skiing and snowboarding as tools for personal growth, mental well-being and life skills development.

Marcus and Connor

Marcus and Connor
At 12, Marcus was groomed by a gang. At 17, Connor (left) was homeless, sleeping in train stations. Both were trapped in cycles of trauma, until Snow Camp offered them a different path. A safe space, to access mental health support and skiing. 

Why Snow Camp matters

Why Snow Camp matters
At Snow Camp we believe that every young person deserves the opportunity to thrive, no matter their background. We use snow sports to engage young people to create positive change with a pathway into further training and employment.

Your support changes lives

Your support changes lives
A £50 donation puts a young person on their first life-changing Snow Camp programme. Marcus is now an inspiring ski instructor and Connor is thriving as a Snow Camp apprentice. Snow Camp has changed their lives.
