Give Us Time are teaming up with Walling2Recovery again for spring 2026 to provide a brand new opportunity for Forces families!
The initiative will combine family time in the beautiful Lake District with practical, hands-on experience of the traditional skill of dry stone walling.
The expertise is provided by Andy Docherty, a veteran of 30 years experience in the British Army, and truly understands the impact of Forces life on families.
This year we sent some families away walling, they said, “The accommodation was fantastic and we ate like royalty throughout. The group size was perfect and we couldn’t have asked for a better bunch of ‘wallers’.”
The dates are: 10th to 12th of April 2026, arriving at 1700 on 10 April and depart 1600 on 12 April. The accommodation is in Yonder End Cottage which has 4 family bedrooms
The cost for any family wanting to join will be £30 per person per day which covers the food and administration cost.
Please note – due to the nature of the activities, only children 14 years old and older will be allowed to participate – there will be no provisions available for younger children.
If you would like more information on taking part email enquiries@giveustime.org.uk – Deadline for bookings is Friday 31 October 2025
