RAW 2025 dates – 3rd – 10th August 2025.
Every year our Reach kids aged 10-17 can have the opportunity to meet, bond and go on an adventure of a lifetime – one that they will remember for years to come – at our annual RAW event held every summer. And this summer, we are heading to a brand-new venue in Cumbria. Located in the south of the Lake District National Park and right on the water, with breath-taking views – Kepplewray Activities Centre.
