The Sukkot Next Generation Camp & Trek challenges participants with an entry level trip to the Lakes, staying under canvass over Sukkoth 12-13 October 2025.
We start our journey learning about the Windermere Children with a private visit to the Lake District Holocaust Project (LDHP), before trekking up to the Calgarth Estate where the Boys convalesced and came back to life.
20km self catered over two Sukkoth days under the stars – what’s not to like?
There will be sessions on navigation, safety, hill skills, survival, and we will discuss the teenage story of the rehabilitation of the Terezin refugees in the same environment, and students will be encouraged to raise funds for a charity of their choice.
Prices from £99 to £199 depending on accommodation type future treks are planned for Sukkot and Half Term 2025.
To give you an idea of the standards the programme matches the requirements of the various Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme level, therefore all students are to self-cater and camp or stay in basic accommodation.
As it is the festival of Sukkot, we will start with building a lakeside traditional sukkah.
Next Generation Programme
The Regenesis Next Generation pairs with other outdoors activity providers to offer like minded students a pathway from novice hill and moorland hikes, through the higher wards to ultimately complete the 90km Windermere Route in Prague at 6th Form level and beyond.
It is a programme designed to staircase students up to a level of personal resilience whilst visiting multiple Holocaust Education Assets and meeting guest speakers along the route.
Students from any DofE Centre can join the residential opportunities once we have become an Approved Activity Provider. Our Leaders are of the highest and safest calibre ensuring that this unique educational experience stands out as perhaps one of the most purposeful outdoors pathways possible.
