Their Stories
Challenge, Growth and Belonging
Every young person, volunteer, supporter and partner has their own Basecamp story.
This is where we share the moments that matter most: the stories of courage, friendship, adventure and personal growth. Whether it's a young person discovering confidence for the first time, a volunteer finding a new sense of purpose or a community coming together to make a difference, these stories capture the lasting impact of Basecamp.
Behind every programme is a person whose life has been changed.

The Adventure That Changed Me Too: Gilly’s Volunteering Story
"I come ready to give my all, but honestly I get so much more back from the experience. I feel part of something really special and the sense of belonging and family that Basecamp offers is something truly unique."
More Than Adventures
Behind every mountain climbed, every campfire shared and every challenge overcome is a story of personal growth.
We share these stories to celebrate the incredible young people, volunteers and supporters who make Basecamp what it is and to show what's possible when people are given the opportunity to thrive.
