In your last interview, in 2021, you talked about how SuperTroop had influenced your decision to study child and adult nursing and that you felt the experience helped you get onto the course.
I was working as an au pair in Australia in my gap year and the host mum suggested children’s nursing and that was kind of the catalyst for me. I thought “Yeah, I love working with kids, I love doing the SuperTroop holidays, imagine if this was my job everyday.”
Christmas is nearly upon us - Santa Claus is loading up his sleigh and your advent calendar is almost empty. The summer holidays could not feel any further away, but here at SuperTroop we are always thinking about the summer. This Christmas we encourage you to help us give young people with learning disabilities a transformative and unforgettable experience, by donating to us and gifting them an incredible holiday in 2026.
SuperTroop’s 2025 AGM was held on the 8th of October at Fettes College, who host the SuperTroop holiday. The following is a short summary of the evening’s presentations.
An incredible £2980 was raised this month, ensuring that SuperTroop’s 2026 Holiday will be spectacular! A huge thank you to everybody who donated to us and to all of our diligent fundraisers, whose efforts we will celebrate in this post.
Every year our volunteers and friends make a special effort to fundraise for our charity in September. 2025 is no different - from bake sales to quizzes and physical challenges, the team will be doing everything they can to raise funds for future holidays. Read on to find out more about what we’re up to and how YOU can join in.
