Lake District DofE Gold Qualifier/Practice

The Windermere Children were evacuated from Prague in August 1945 by the RAF, landing in Crosby-on-Eden.

This qualifier or practice then takes participants on foot all the way from the Carlisle Airfield to Windermere crossing many fells that the original Children played at. Its a tough 5 day self catered camping hike, ending at the site where the 300 Children were rehabilitated.

Up to 12 places available. Cost £400 (subsidies available)

DofE Qualifying Residential

This is a unique opportunity to volunteer at and participate in the 80th anniversary of the Windermere Children’s arrival in the Lakes. Based at one campsite overlooking the Calgarth Estate, participants will be able to volunteer with the Lake District Holocaust Project and the 45 Aid Society in preparation for this special occasion. Students will self cater, and be able to enjoy outdoor activities during free time.

Participants will be up close with Holocaust Survivors, storytellers, and 2nd or 3rd Generation families as we learn about the benefits of rehabilitation in the outdoors and the reasons why Anna Freud chose the Lakes to convalesce 300 refugees.

Cost £400 (with subsidies available)
