We asked visitors last week to comment on: - What have we been good at? - What aren’t we so good at and need to improve? - What should we be working on and focusing on in the future? - Anything else? We were genuinely surprised at the answers ❤️
EsseCamp Oban '26 Done ✅️ A massive thank you to everyone that contributed their time and money towards a fantastic weekend. 🏳️⚧️💙
All set up! We take up to 25 trans and non-binary people for a *free* weekend of wildcamping, activities and good times, between 2 and 4 times each year. A chance for the community to get a break from the world, get a change of scenery, and reduce social isolation.
EsseCamp Oban, the last of 2026, and the best trans & non-binary wild-camping adventure in the UK starts TODAY. We lay on activities and cater 3 meals a day for all diets, for FREE for all attendees; funded by the community & allies. Help us buy some sausages? www.essehouse.co.uk/donate
