Country Holidays for Inner City Kids (CHICKS) is a charity set up to provide respite holidays for disadvantaged children. CHICKS was set up in 1992, with a clear vision:

"CHICKS vision is to give every disadvantaged child the opportunity to feel valued." Over 1,200 of these disadvantaged children will attend CHICKS this year.

Two camps are run every week, April to December in their two locations; Moorlands in Devon and Coastal in Cornwall. The camps run Thursday to Tuesday, where activities are organised to the highest standard by the dedicated Supervisors. Activities include Horse Riding, Swimming, Gorge Scrambling, Canoeing\Kayaking, Archery, Climbing, Abseiling, Trips to the Beach, Crealy. All the activities are challenge by choice and designed to be fun, something new and a challenge.

Staffing and Volunteers
Camps can only run with a mix of CHICKS Staff and Volunteers. The maximum number of volunteers on a camp is usually restricted to 7, with a gender balance trying to be stuck (3 males, 4 females or 4 males, 3 females).
