What Past Ignite Campers Have Said

The best thing about Ignite was the friends I made and the interaction with others... it felt like they really cared about me.

I liked that (Ignite) taught us to trust ourselves. When I started I had no faith or trust in myself.

The Ignite Camp Facilitators

Our Ignite Camp facilitators are the foundation for a successful camp. Having had extensive training and facilitation experience with young people, an Ignite Camp Facilitator is hand-picked to lead each camp and take the young people through their experiential learning journey.

Our facilitators come from a wide range of backgrounds, from teachers, youth workers, counsellors, professional speakers, community group leaders, mental health professionals & more. It is really important for us to have a breadth of experience and demographics in our facilitation team so that each young person has someone they can connect with.
