Tex and his siblings had wonderful memories of being able to take advantage of the fantastic opportunity to visit the holiday camp at Prestatyn whilst growing up in Ordsall in Salford, the Charity is still in full force today, and still giving the children of Salford the wonderful gift of a seaside holiday ❤️

After closure in early 2014 the camp reopened in April 2015, it had originally been opened in 1926 as a poor children’s camp so the less than privileged Salford children could have a holiday by the sea. Affectionately Known as the Jam Butty camp the ‘poor’ was eventually removed from the title.

It now offers holidays to school children, young carers, brownies, scouts, football teams and other groups as well as privileged children.
