“It was so good to be able to do something that's connected to my child’s NF that isn't an appointment, or forms, or additional worries and burden. It was so lovely to finally be able to do something FUN that we could only do because he has NF1.”

WHAT TO EXPECT

NF Camps provide members of the NF community the opportunity to build supportive relationships with their peers and others walking a similar journey, who know and understand NF.

Our aim is to help our community of NF families increase feelings of social inclusion, connection and support.

Camp Kindiland offers all of the action-packed outdoor activities you might expect from a Queensland holiday. Some may be a little challenging, but all of them are guaranteed to make sure that both kids and adults leave feeling energised and refreshed.

  • abseiling

  • canoeing
  • white water rafting
  • giant swing

Of course if you feel like coming to camp and just relaxing, we've got you covered for that too!
