What is the Christian content of the ventures?

E-mail Print PDF

There is a strong evangelical Christian ethos behind all that we do. The leaders aim to model what it means to be a Christian in their daily lives, as well as in their teaching. We have morning bible studies in small groups and evening celebrations with interactive activities and talks based on the bible. The exact content varies from year to year, so that those who return for more than one summer receive a breadth of teaching. We are in agreement with theĀ  CPAS Basis of Faith, and our teaching reflects this stance. The Christian teaching is the central part of the holiday and so, whilst we welcome members of any faith or none, we regret that we can not accommodate members who are not willing to participate in Christian activities.

Is Lighthouse safe?

E-mail Print PDF

Safety is central to our planning at every level. We carry out extensive checks on every leader and have a comprehensive child protection policy in operation. We have at least one first aider for every 10 children and all pool swimming is supervised by lifeguards with (at least) a National Pool Lifeguard Qualification. All our activities are planned with full written risk assessments, and one of the overall leaders takes specific responsibility for the physical safety of the venture. We run the venture with some spare leader capacity so that, in the event of an illness or injury, we can allocate experienced team members to deal with the situation without reducing the care for the remaining children. None of the activities on Lighthouse holidays require AALA licencing.
