TEAM 3 ENCANTO

After the much-anticipated arrival at Eurocamp, Team Encanto gathered their bags, suitcases, books, phones, and activity packs from the coach and made their way to the chalet that we called home for the next few days. Room allocation was decided quickly as everyone from Team Encanto was exhausted from the long (but exciting!) journey on the coach and the ferry. Due to the thrill of the Disney trip the next day the young carers were eager to stay up and chat, but due to being so tired and with an early start the next day it wasn’t long before they were fast asleep!

The next morning the lodge was teeming with excitement and chatter, breakfast was wolfed down and we practically ran to the bus because the main priority was to get to Disney as soon as possible! The young carers had a wonderful time at Disneyland- venturing on all the rides, taking in the sights, and digging in to all the delicious food. It was a fun filled, action packed day which they all enjoyed. One young carer said, ‘I loved the fact that I was persuaded to do things I never thought I’d do,’ when talking about the different rides and attractions they experienced.

To say the young carers were tired when they got back from Disneyland would be an understatement, so it was lights out to rest for a day of on-site activities the next day. The young carers loved varied activities and were eager to learn that they’d be having a late night that night to watch a movie and have snacks before heading home.
