Sponsor a Child at Camp

Diabetes TASMANIA conducts regular camps for children and young people with diabetes. This is a wonderful opportunity for children with diabetes to come together in an environment that provides a range of challenging, interesting and fun activities with an educational focus. These camps are held annually, usually in the summer school holidays.

Some children with diabetes may never spend a night away from their home, and often have never met another child of their own age with diabetes, so it can be a very isolating time in their life. All camps have both medical and nursing staff on site 24 hours a day.

Not all children are able to attend the camps and if you would like to assist in helping a child that may not have the opportunity to attend a camp, please consider our 'Sponsor a Child at Camp' Program. This is a great way to help people with diabetes as well as providing a child with a fabulous experience.

For information about how to sponsor a child please contact us on 1300 136 588 or email mail@datas.org.au
