We are so proud to share some of the incredible moments and experiences from the annual Upside Camp 2023! The young people and mentors who hopped on the bus for camp this year had it all - team building, connections, outdoor fun, and delicious kai.
- Emily (Mentor)-
Camp was filled with so many magic moments, but one highlight was seeing how our mentors championed and motivated their young people. In turn, the young people were supporting each other to face and overcome challenges - and celebrate together too.

This is what community and belonging looks like!
Anyone would have been so encouraged to see rangatahi bravely conquer their fear of the flying fox and taking the leap! Or witnessing the powerful words of love and support that got a number of young people to the top of the rock-climbing walls!
There was so much pride in their smiles, from trying and achieving.
