Jack

Hiya! I’m Jack, and this will be the first summer I’ve spent at camp, so I can’t wait to share this adventure with you all.

Who am I?

  • I am 21, and I will be 22 by the time camp starts.
  • I studied environmental sciences at the University of Leeds, and I graduated in 2023. I am really excited about nature and doing what we can to protect our planet, and I am excited to share this enthusiasm with you all.
  • I love music, and I have played guitar since I was 9. If there’s ever an opportunity, you’ll find me with a guitar in my hands. I’ve performed at open mic nights and charity events with the bands I’ve been in.
  • I love hiking and exploring the outdoors. I’ve been hiking across the UK with my friends and family and have also explored landscapes across Europe in Portugal and Iceland.

A person in a green jacket and jeans stands smiling under a large stone archway of a historic ruin, with leafless trees and sunlight visible through the opening in the background.
  • Even though I’m no good at playing, I love to watch football, and will go to support my local team, Derby County, whenever I can.
  • I have a dog called Betty, who I love taking on long walks. Here she is photobombing a picture of my family at the beach in Liverpool (this is my favourite picture of all time!).
  • In 2019, I volunteered at a primary school in Uganda, where I worked with the students to build a passionfruit farm. I loved the two weeks I spent here and I’m really excited to have another exciting summer at Camp Augusta!

A game of 2 truths 1 lie to finish:

  • I once fell over in a shallow river while trying to walk through.
  • I once swam with sharks.
  • I once got caught in quicksand.

Come find me at camp and tell me which one you think isn’t true!

I’m so excited to get to Camp Augusta this summer share this adventure with you all!
