I had been aware of Snow Camp for a long time, one of the staff at our chalet had worked for them years ago, but they came more on my radar as they are based near to where I live in Hove. I had in the past wondered if introducing disadvantaged kids to the mountains was a good use of money, surely there are bigger problems to surmount, but as I"ve got to understand what they do, why they do it and what the outcomes are, I think its an invaluable opportunity for kids to discover who they could be and what the world can offer, through life changing experiences in the mountains. I mean, almost everytime I'm in the mountains it's a life affirming thing, and I'm deep in the game, just imagine what power that has for a kid who has never even left the UK, or maybe even his neighbourhood.
