Following another fantastic year of camps across the country, we are excited to once again bring young people together for a summer full of fun, friendship, adventure, and Irish language activities in a safe and welcoming environment.

This year, our Climate Justice Project will focus on the UN Sustainable Development Goal 15 “Life on Land.” Members will have the chance to get hands-on with nature in their local area while learning about how the environment around them impacts their lives and what they can do to protect it. As part of the project, members will create an educational video and take part in engaging environmental activities throughout the year. SDG 15 will feature across events, summer camps, trips, and regular club sessions, encouraging everyone to connect with and care for the natural world around them.
