Storytelling!
After lots of discussion between 2024-25 Venturer Committee, the theme chosen was Storytelling!
Venturer Committee facilitator, Suzannah Walker, said it was ‘one of a few suggestions made by committee and the one that stuck and everyone felt collectively inspired by’
It comes off the back of previous themes of camps gone by such as Mythology (2023) and Voyages (2019).
We are so excited to have a theme chosen by Venturers for Venturers!
We want to empower young people to tell their stories, and uncover the stories of marginalised communities and cultures. We take an inclusive, broad, inquisitive approach to our theme and are always curious to hear YOUR ideas and takes.
What ideas do you have for programme? Here’s what our programme co-ordinator Eva said about what to expect:
Storytelling will be woven through the event from workshops to village activities to the wide game. We’re excited to consider all types of stories that inspire us: campfire tales, poetry, drama, Woodcraft history and so much more. Can’t wait to see you there!
More information to be released soon about programme (maybe even a list of centres…)
In the mean time, start designing your fancy dress, start planning with your districts and think about what Storytelling means to you!
