Voyager membership – adventure awaits…

Come and join one of the longest serving and most established youth movements in the world!

What is a Voyager Membership?

Develop skills, learn about the world, build confidence and make life-long friends along the way!

Traditionally, for nearly 100 years, young people of all ages have been members of our youth organisation through attending our local groups and taking part in our local, regional and national events.

We are excited to now offer Voyager membership so that you can be a part of the movement from home! Voyager membership is open for young people aged 10-15 who want to be part of Woodcraft Folk but do not have a local group nearby to join.

As well as receiving a membership pack with a wide range of engaging activities to explore at home, Voyagers will also be invited to attend Woodcraft Folk regional and national events so that they can meet up with the rest of the movement.

Who are Woodcraft Folk?

Signing up as a Voyager means you will be a part of Woodcraft Folk, a youth movement with 200 groups for young people across the UK, five UK residential centres and a strong youth programme.

Woodcraft Folk is a youth organisation that are passionate about empowering young people and support their members to explore the social and natural world around us through games, crafts, debates, drama activities, workshops and outdoor activities. Our members also learn about important issues such as the environment and global conflict.

Through our weekly group nights, residential centres, campaigns, events and programmes we encourage children and young people to take the lead and change their world.

Joining Woodcraft Folk offers a chance for young people to develop skills, build confidence, make friends, learn about the world, get outdoors and explore new experiences in a safe space where everyone is welcome.

What’s included in your membership?

As part of your membership you will receive:

  • A welcome pack filled with goodies such as stickers, a badge, water bottle and branded stationary!
  • An activity booklet filled with 40+ pages of Woodcraft Folk activities to get stuck into at home including challenges, craft activities and recipes. The activities are themed around a range of topics from nature to peace and children’s rights!
  • Half-termly themed activity e-newsletter with challenges, campaigns, activities and projects to try at home along with the latest news from across the movement
  • Invites to regional events
  • Invites to national events
  • Entry into Voyager and Supporter events including reduced fees to our popular Camps for All residentials!

Being a Voyager will mean you are a Woodcraft Folk member which means receiving special invites to our events. There is the opportunity to attend regional and national events run at a variety of locations across the UK. Events vary from a full day event to a week-long camp! Next year for example, Voyagers will be invited to our week-long summer camp, Camp 100, which is in celebration of our 100 year anniversary! There will be engaging workshops, adventurous activities and lots of fun and games. Thousands of young people will be travelling to the UK from around the world to take part.

Events

There are a wide range of events we run from bushcraft themed sessions to camps filled with workshops, adventurous activities, games and more! Voyagers can get involved with national and international projects and events. Our Camps for All events are a great way to get involved with Woodcraft Folk, make new friends and participate in fun, adventurous and cooperative activities. Events can be found on our Camps for All web page and we’ll also tell you about these and other upcoming events in your half termly activity newsletter.


“I mostly enjoyed meeting new people and making friends with them. The activities and games at camp were really fun, especially the crate stacking”

How much does it cost?

We have introduced tiered contributions for Voyager membership ranging from just £15 to £35 for an annual membership.
