GetYourBellyOut’s Wellbeing Weekend

We are thrilled to offer members of our GetYourBellyOut community the opportunity to join us for a third weekend break!
Event date:
Friday 21st – Sunday 23rd July 2023
Location:
Foxlease, Clay Hill, Hampshire, SO43 7DE
Cost:
£300* for IBD’ers, £350 for any plus ones.
Cost includes:
Own room with en-suite, food and numerous activities.
Travel/transport:
Participants to make their own arrangements as not included in the price.
What’s involved?
Take a pause from the outside world to enjoy a weekend FULL of on-site activities designed to build your confidence and encourage new friendships with like-minded individuals. From zip wires, archery, kayaking and more – you are bound to have a great time amongst people who understand the challenges of living with Inflammatory Bowel Disease. What’s more, all of your food and accommodation (each with its own private bathroom facilities) is included in the price. Do let us know if you are happy to share your accommodation as we are keen to cater to everyone’s individual needs.

Who can apply?
We have a limited number of heavily subsidised spaces available for people living with IBD as we know it can be challenging to find the funds due to ill health. *We will be asking to see supporting documentation when applying for these subsidised spaces.
We also understand IBD affects the whole family, so you may like to bring a loved one along with you for moral support – whilst we are happy to accommodate a plus one, these additional attendees will be asked to contribute more towards the cost of their subsidised stay. Details of which will be set out within the application form.  

‘GetYourBellyOut is so important to the IBD community, and their confidence weekends have helped so many people to meet other IBD’ers, build confidence and take part in activities they never thought they could because of their IBD / stomas.’

‘It is such an amazing event for bellies to get to know one another, be able to try activities that they usually wouldn’t for fear of feeling embarrassed and just generally a great way to feel less alone.’

Good to know – We are keen to capture this event on film for future promotional/ marketing purposes. It is therefore important you understand we will have a film crew in attendance throughout this event to capture photos and videos. This is something that has been taken into consideration when costing the event. So here is your chance to get a fun-filled, activity weekend break for a bargain price whilst helping us shape future activities like this one for members of our GetYourBellyOut community.

All attendees must be over 18 years old and please be mindful this exciting event has only been made possible thanks to amazing community fundraising efforts and corporate sponsorship, which is support we are incredibly grateful for.
