“This has been devastating for our industry, but also it’s been devastating for children who have missed out on school trips, activities and holiday clubs.
“We very much see the job creations as a way of boosting the economy again and re-wilding children – to help them get outside, away from screens and back into the great outdoors where they can be free to explore and learn.”
The job opportunities currently open vary from activity, camp and team leaders to early years practitioners, lifeguards and estate managers. This Easter has seen one of ALG’s brands, SuperCamps, open up to children, and it has been one of its busiest seasons on record.
Mr Miller added: “The demand we have seen for our clubs shows no signs of slowing down as the summer season approaches, and with our Camp Wilderness trips open for booking, we are already seeing record numbers of people applying for a weekend getaway.”
