Satellites Youth Gathering

DATES: Friday 4th August - Wednesday 9th August 2023
LOCATION: Bath & West Showground, Shepton Mallett (drop-off/pick-up in Luton)
COST: £165

Every year Luton Unite organise a trip during the summer holidays to a youth event. This year, the National Youthscape team will be running a summer event called Satellites which will be held at the Bath & West Showground, Shepton Mallett, and will be attended by young people from across the UK.

The Luton Unite team are passionate about their faith and it is the driving force behind all we do for young people, for us the summer camps are an opportunity for our young people to explore what faith means to them in a safe and fun environment. This year we will be travelling to the Satellites event and would like to invite young people in school year 7-13 to join us!

The event takes place Friday 4th - Wednesday 9th August 2023. We will be leaving on the Friday morning at 9.15am from Youthscape, and arrive back on the Wednesday at about 12.30pm. The weekend is packed full of activities, including: live music, silent discos, a skate park, a colour run, sports tournaments, a UV party, and movie nights, as well as talks and seminars exploring the Christian faith.

Buying a ticket

The cost of attending Satellites Youth Gathering is £165 per person, which covers the young person’s tent, transport, and all their meals and activities.

There is a bursary scheme available for any young person who is unable to afford the fee, so please get in touch with Robert McNerney at robert.mcnerney@youthscape.co.uk if you would like to find out more.

If you feel this is an opportunity you would like to offer your child, then please complete the consent and medical form below, and buy a ticket using the link on this page by 5th July at the latest.

If your child would like to attend Satellites, it will be essential for you to attend our Parents/Carers meeting on Wednesday 5th July 2023 from 7pm-8pm at Youthscape. There will be an opportunity to meet the team who will be supervising your child whilst away at the event, find out more about Satellites, receive important information about what your child will need to bring, as well as an opportunity to ask any questions you may have.
