Youth groups

You are welcome to use the hostel and grounds for day/evening activities or residentials. Here are some of the groups who have visited Derwentwater Independent Hostel recently:

• Scout groups (for instance: Eden District Cubs, Essex Scouts Mountaineering Group, and Sheffield Scouts)
• National Citizen Service groups
• The CLIP project: a youth volunteering scheme run by The Conservation Volunteers
• Youth rugby clubs
• Young and Sweet Youth Group from Northumberland
• North Copeland Youth Group from Cumbria
• Duke of Edinburgh Award groups
• Encompass: The Daniel Braden Reconciliation Trust
• Albemarle Barracks Youth Club

We want to share Barrow House and the Lake District with as many young people as possible, and so we have a fund for subsidising youth group residentials. Click here for a poster and information sheet about the fund and residentials, and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
