In the charity's own words

Camp XL hosts residential activity camps for ages 11-18, many at its activity centre, Gaines Manor. Though a Christian organisation, it explicitly opens its programmes to those of all faiths and none, encouraging young people to think critically and reach their own considered opinions on matters of faith; to resist the urge to conform, understand alternate views, and value freedom of conscience.
