Involve - Ages 14+

Involve weeks provide opportunities for young people to use their God-given abilities.
The old Video week has been changed to give it a wider focus, resulting in the new Preparation week.
It will still involve some Video work, but will also include preparing all sorts of things for the other Upcott Weeks this year, including visuals, games and anything else we can think of!
There will be various Involve weekends planned later on - watch this space for details.

Once again we are going to celebrate the New Year with each other. There will be plenty of time to chill out as well as times of worship, prayer and teaching. Come prepared to give and receive in a relaxed atmosphere.
The Summer week for those who have left school. Students can attend this week at the discounted price of £140.
Earlybird is a cheap opportunity to come to Raise a few days early for a mixture of worship and work.
Upcott weeks have a mixture of biblical teaching, worship and prayer as well as games, activities and time to spend with the other young people and helpers.
All weeks are full board, in a large country house with dormitory accommodation.
If you were here in 2009, we are all looking forward to seeing you again. The structure of the weeks is fairly similar to last year, although we have moved some of the dates around to avoid clashes with other summer events for young people. Now that we can have more young people on each week, 2010 would be a brilliant year to bring along a friend or two.
