A Close-Knit SuperTroop Family

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.

This Christmas gift a child and their family an unforgettable summer holiday!

New policy for holiday-makers

New policy for holiday-makers

…there are really good reasons to have holiday-makers return to the week, for a number of years. But this does mean that new places are rare and it limits the holiday ‘turnover’ to occasions when someone graduates out of the week, aged 18. This is why, for new holiday-makers joining SuperTroop from summer 2024 onwards, we are going to limit their place to a six-year fixed term.
