We’re really excited to announce that our Go Wild! 2022 Summer Scheme is now in progress for Newham 8-14 year olds!
Last year saw our biggest ever programme, with around 280 children joining. It was great to see them running free together after so long in lockdown and we can’t wait to do it all again!
Thanks to the support of our generous funders, we are able to offer places at a low cost of just £5 per day per child!
In addition, we are able to offer full day extended hours holiday care during the programme from 8am to 6pm for just £28 a day or £130 a week,
“My two kids are absolutely loving the summer at BDCA. The incredible resources, support, fun and overall organisation is spot on!”

Our 2022 programme
This year, we’re looking forward to hosting the best summer scheme yet! The programme will include all the favourites, from zorbing to a trip to the seaside – and we’ve got some great new things in store too.

As always, this year’s scheme is co-designed and delivered by our amazing young leaders, aged 15-22, as part of our ‘Stepping Up’ programme.
This means that, as well as providing a lot of fun and new experiences for our younger neighbours, Go Wild! also offers local young people valuable work and volunteering experience.
We’ve been busy recruiting and training this summer’s team and we can honestly say they are a fantastic bunch of young people, with some great new ideas too!
Thank you to our funders
It’s because we receive financial support from our funders that we are able to run Go Wild! and offer it to local families at such a low, affordable price.
This year’s main funders are BBC Children in Need, East End Community Foundation, Newham Council Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) Programme, and London Borough of Newham Youth Empowerment Service.
Thank you to all of you for making Go Wild! possible and affordable for our neighbours!
