About Camp Bonas

Where Confidence and Independence Begin

The most valuable lessons often happen beyond the classroom. Camp Bonas is designed to help young people develop confidence, independence and character through a carefully balanced programme of adventure, creativity and teamwork.

Set in the stunning Somerset countryside, campers enjoy a week of exploration, challenge and friendship in a safe and supportive environment. They return home with new skills, greater self-belief and memories that last long after the summer ends.

What to expect

A light introduction to independence

Camp Bonas offers children the opportunity to experience greater independence in a safe and supportive setting. Through shared experiences, team challenges and life beyond their usual routines, campers develop confidence, resilience and social maturity.

The ability to communicate effectively, adapt to new situations and build strong relationships are qualities that benefit young people throughout their lives. Camp Bonas is designed to nurture these skills while creating an unforgettable summer experience.
