💛 ABOUT BURN CAMPS CHARITY
Burn Camps Charity was established to fund and organise residential camps and day events for young burns survivors, regardless of the severity of burn, ethnic or religious background.
The charity is run entirely on a voluntary basis, with no government funding and no wages paid to members or volunteers. That means every penny donated goes directly towards organising and running these special camps and day events for children and young people.
Our childhood is short enough and every child should have the opportunity to enjoy these years.
