Peeps Together at Bendrigg Trust – April 2027 – Applications open!


Peeps are pleased to announce that we’re heading back to Bendrigg Trust on Friday 9th – Sunday 11th April 2027, for a special Peeps Together residential weekend.

Our ‘Register your Interest’ form is now open 😊

This will be Peeps’ fifth trip with H.I.E. families, and it’s always a special weekend spent together.

Bendrigg Trust is a fully accessible outdoor activity centre offering a weekend full of activities such as canoeing, ziplining, indoor climbing, indoor caving, tube sliding, campfire, and lots more! The closing date for this round of applications is Monday 26th October 2026, and we will notify everyone of the decision soon after.

If there is more interest than places, then we will share how places will be allocated, to make it as fair as possible on everyone. Our trips to Bendrigg Trust are well loved by all attendees and we hope to run trips for a long time!

It is a 2 night stay from Friday 9th April at 4pm, to Sunday 11th April 2027 at 2pm, for up to 48 individuals. 

We have always received such lovely feedback:
“Thank you very much for this opportunity. We had an epic time and we are still processing the experiences and the moments from the weekend. Thank you again!”
“Great day at Bendrigg Trust started off canoeing, then it was indoor caving, sensory room and finished with the swing. Passed the evening with some arts and crafts… Looking forward to tomorrows session.”
“AJ’s blends were provided by the kitchen and were don’t perfectly! PS – how nice is it to sit and eat with your child in a restaurant and feel ‘normal’?! We’ve had a lovely weekend and made some beautiful memories.”

Please note: 

  • Our trips are open to all HIE families who are registered to receive support from Peeps. If you have not registered for support, you can do so here.
  • Our events and activities should only be for immediate family members (including parents, carers, siblings and children), in the case that you might need an extended family member to come along to support, this is fine! We ask that you let us know if this is required.
  • Once we have received your application, we will be in touch to confirm the details and if we require any further information.
  • If you wish to withdraw your application, please contact us on family@peeps-hie.org to let us know.

Cost transparency:

The price for the weekend is currently subsidised to £150 per person. As with previous visits, we are currently looking at funding towards this weekend, to bring the cost down for all families, and make it as affordable as possible.

The true cost of each place on this residential trip is £287.50 +VAT, which includes your accommodation, all meals, and a range of activities. The remaining cost will be covered by grants, sponsorship, fundraising and donations.

As soon as we hear if any further funding come in we will let you know, however £150 per person is the maximum anyone would be asked to pay.

We understand that the cost may be a barrier for some families. If this is the case, please let us know and we will look to see how we can support.

If it would be helpful to have this information in a different language or format, please let us know.

 

For any questions about this trip, please contact us via email on family@peeps-hie.org. You can also visit Bendrigg Trust’s website for more information.
