Your questions answered 

WHAT IS YOUR POLICY ON MOBILE PHONES AND ELECTRONICS?

We have a ‘no tech’ rule on all our camps! Camp wilderness is an opportunity for children to get away from the busyness of their everyday lives and spend time away from their screens.

DOES MY CHILD NEED TO COME IN A GROUP OR CAN HE/SHE COME ON HIS/HER OWN?

Many of the children come to camp on their own and have a wonderful time. They always leave with lots of new friends and it’s a great time for them to build their confidence and develop new skills.

DO YOU CATER FOR SPECIAL DIETARY REQUIREMENTS?

We take the dietary requirements very seriously at Active Learning Centres we have a robust system in place which accounts for all 14 listed allergens and even allergies which are not recognized by FSA legislation are catered for.

We can supply a carb counted menu on request for anyone with diabetes, and also have the facility to weigh and count the food on site.

All our catering staff and instructors are trained in allergy awareness and Natasha’s law.

Whilst we endeavor to replicate an allergy-free alternative for every meal sometimes this just isn’t possible but with careful planning and a simple chat with the catering staff we can make sure there is always plenty to eat for everyone with an allergy.

With such a good selection of dishes available fussy eaters can be catered for but due to cross contamination possibilities and storage issues we cannot allow food to be brought into the Centre except in severe medical circumstances.
