The Girls LEAD London Camp is located at Brescia University College, Canada’s women’s university. This is an unparalleled capacity to host an interactive leadership camp based on fun, friendship and inspiration. Additionally, located on Brescia’s beautiful 85 acre campus bordering the Medway Valley Heritage Forest, our LEAD-ers will be exposed to exceptional green space and curious wildlife.
Girls LEAD (Leadership Education and Development) is a one-week day camp leadership experience that allows campers to explore their self-confidence, self-esteem, strengths, weaknesses and develop their teamwork and communication skills. Campers will work together to develop their identity and share it with others in a safe, inclusive environment. Our goal is to prepare girls to confidently take on leadership roles not only in small groups, but also in local and global communities, by looking inwards at the self and outwards at the world around them.
