BACKGROUND The term Camphrence is a combination of Camp and Conference. The first Camphrence was held in 2005 in Maldon VIC. The first Camphrence saw a small group of families come together meet, share ideas/knowledge, make life-long friends, enjoy some fun activities, and listen to guest speakers. ozed – YouTube
WHO CAN ATTEND? Everyone is welcome. We encourage all family members to attend as we understand not only the person with ED is affected and no one wants to miss out on all the fun. We organise activities for all ages.
HOW OFTEN, WHERE, HOW LONG? Camphrences are held every year in a different state (see Schedule) and are for 4 days 3 nights. Day visits can be arranged if families are unable to attend for the full time.
