Story
'The best part of the week was when we dug up potatoes from the garden at Camas. I didn't like the worms, but we all worked together as a team' Young person .
Lizz, Peter, Cory, Rachel, Aaron and Kerin are doing the EDINBURGH KILTWALK TO RAISE FUNDS FOR THE GARDEN AND NATURE at two places close to our hearts, .Holy Rood House and Camas.
THIS PAGE IS TO DONATE TO CAMAS
We are walking to celebrate 80 years of youth work at Camas, the Iona Community's outdoor centre on the Isle of Mull.
Both centres are places of hope - offering hospitality, community, creativity, welcome and acceptance, particularly to people who are facing challenges. Both centres also have a strong commitment to enabling people on low incomes to be able to attend.
Both places seek to care for the earth and offer guests the opportunity to connect with nature – through gardening, home grown food, walks, reflection and through the beauty and peace of the centres' surroundings. This supports well-being and many people have found a sense of confidence, new skills and new experiences.
Donations will go to the creation of opportunities, food growing, the purchase of plants, tools, equipment and the ongoing maintenance of gardens, animals and surrounds.
We know that times are difficult for many but we would appreciate any amount, small or large.

1 year agoThanks to all of you for your generous donations. Tomorrow evening we will close the crowdfunding page and send the money to camas. A good time of the year when Camas staff, volunteers and gardener will be planning the garden for spring and of course a better idea of the groups going to Camas for a week in 2024. Be assured that your donations will be going directly to the garden and the young people that will interact with it!

1 year agoThanks everyone for your contributions. Camas and Holy Rood have benefitted from a total of over £2000 thanks to your generosity. The team started walking at 9.30 this morning- Cory and Loki, Aaron and Kerin, Lizz, Rachel and Peter - and all finished by 4pm nursing sore feet to the tunes of Valtos on the finish line! Here’s a picture at the end - don’t be fooled by the relaxed faces!!!!
