โœฆ About the camp

What is THE SUMMIT?

The Summit is a brand new 4-day residential camp for participants aged 16โ€“18,
taking place at the iconic Queen’s College, Oxford University from Sunday 23rd
to Wednesday 26th August 2026.

Participants step into the role of global delegates, debating real-world issues
in a dynamic Model United Nations setting. The Summit is designed to push you
out of your comfort zone โ€” building confidence, sharpening your public speaking,
and developing the negotiation skills that world leaders rely on.

Beyond the conference room, there is a strong focus on building friendships,
working as a team, and creating meaningful connections with people from different
backgrounds. Expect outdoor activities, group challenges, and evening
entertainment โ€” from laughter-filled nights to moments you won’t forget.
