Camp Fearless for kids with Crohn's and colitis

Planning for Camp Fearless 2025 is well underway, and we’re excited to share what's in store.

This September, we’ll once again bring together young people living with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis for a transformative three-day adventure. Teens aged 12 to 18 from across Australia will be invited to take part in Camp Fearless 2025 – a unique opportunity to connect, grow, and have fun in a supportive and understanding environment.

Camp Fearless will be held from 12–14 September at The Collaroy Centre on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, a beautiful coastal location perfect for adventure, reflection, and friendship. Up to 30 young people will join us for the weekend, creating a space where they can be themselves and share experiences with others who understand what it’s like to live with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

The camp program has been thoughtfully designed to cater to a wide range of abilities and comfort levels. Activities will include abseiling, rock climbing, and water sports, along with more relaxed options and plenty of downtime. We’ll also run interactive workshops focused on building practical life skills for managing IBD – from nutrition tips and stress management to talking to friends and teachers about their condition.

Camp Fearless provides teens with the chance to build resilience, make lifelong friendships, and feel seen and supported. We can’t wait to welcome this year’s campers to what promises to be another unforgettable experience.
