Girlguiding 1st Loftus Make Summer Memories at Raywell Park

Raywell Park Activity Centre recently welcomed the Girlguiding unit from 1st Loftus for an action-packed summer camp, filled with adventure, creativity, and unforgettable experiences. The visit was a fantastic showcase of what Girlguiding is all about—empowering girls through teamwork, fun, and outdoor learning.

The group stayed in our BP Building, which sleeps up to 34 people and has recently undergone a refurbishment of its toilet and shower facilities. The Brownies and Guides enjoyed a vibrant programme that included go-karting, inflatables, kite decorating, marshmallow toasting, and blindfold trust challenges—all designed to build confidence and encourage collaboration.

Every part of Raywell came alive with laughter, energy and enthusiasm as the girls took part in games, silent discos, and team competitions. The camp ended on a high note with the results of the group competition that saw Blue and Green patrols share first place, followed by Red and Yellow.

In addition to the BP Building, Raywell Park also features the Nyeri Centre, a larger indoor facility that sleeps 40 people. It's ideal for not only Girlguiding groups, but also Scouts, schools, and youth organisations looking for a flexible and well-equipped residential base in the East Yorkshire countryside.

Raywell Park offers far more than just accommodation. We provide an exciting selection of activities that are perfect for Girlguiding units planning a camp, holiday, or adventure weekend, including:

• Archery

• Caving Bus
• Bouldering Wall
• Air Rifle Shooting
• Low Ropes & Adventure Course
• Pedal Go Karts
• Agility Course & Lawn Games

Whether you're part of Girlguiding, such as a local Brownie Pack or Guide unit, or a division planning your next big event, Raywell Park is the perfect place to bring your programme to life.
