Resource for Families with Children with Complex Care Needs


The BC Centre for Ability will be running Camp Alexandra, a summer camp for children with complex medical conditions this summer.

What is it?
  • Overnight camp
  • Six children, with five counsellors and one full time nurse
  • Activities include walks along Crescent Beach and making a daily journal


When is it?
  • Monday to Friday
  • Three sessions throughout summer 2017


Who is it for?
  • Children who are: dependent for feeding, non-ambulatory, not on a ventilator, and meet one of the other criteria (see flyer for full details).
  • This is to ensure that those children who may not be able to attend another kind of camp, have the opportunity to experience this summer tradition


Contact information
Spots are given on a first-come basis

Please share this exciting opportunity with any families who may be interested.
