Welcome to the Camp Quality Website!

We are the children’s family cancer charity that believes in bringing optimism and happiness to the lives of children and families affected by cancer through fun therapy. We believe laughter is the best medicine.

At CQ we are one big happy family. Our kids and their families, our staff and volunteers, and our partners, sponsors and donors are all part of the family. Together we help children and their families face the challenging days and celebrate good ones.

We believe in improving the quality of life through unrelenting optimism.

We'd love you to get involved, so check out join CQ, how you can help, or donate now!

Our recreation program

We're famous for camps and fun days!

At a CQ camp or fun day cancer fades into the background. We're riding waves abseiling down cliffs, paddling down rivers or giant waterslides instead.

A day, a weekend or a week, in a fun, optimistic and supportive environment makes a world of difference to mums, dads and all the kids.

We run hundreds of camps and fun days all over Australia. Our main types:

Green dot

Camps (without your parents!)

Check out junior camp, senior camp, main camp and ski camp. Activities vary from a week of horse riding, fishing, putt-putt golf, canoeing and archery to a weekend in the snow. These camps work on what we call a 'companion model', this helps make camp safe, stress free and so much fun!

Orange dot

Family camps (your whole family can come!)

It's family fun time! Family camp is time out together in a positive, fun environment. It helps rebuild family optimism.

Purple dot

Offspring family camps  (new for CQ)

Our new offspring family camps are for children aged 0-18 years who have a parent or carer living with cancer. Like our other family camps the whole family can come and have fun!

Yellow dot

Fun days

Our fun days are great for making new friends. Some local CQs run mother and daughter, or father and son activities too.

They are free!

Thanks to the support of our partners, sponsors and donors, camps and fun days are fully funded by Camp Quality. We look after the important things like awesome meals and fun activities! On kids' camps trained medical staff look after administering all medication.
