The work camp, like the other activities organized by the GEPV, takes place at Escola Salvador Espriu. During the summer, the school adapts in order to carry out all the activities.
It is located on the outskirts of the village, with a lot of green areas nearby.
All participants will be living in the same space (the school gymnasium) and the room will be shared with no gender separation: the sleeping area will be equipped with mattresses and wardrobes for all participants, but it is necessary to bring a sleeping bag and a pillow.
For personal hygiene, volunteers will use the school's changing rooms, which are equipped with showers and sinks, and the changing rooms are going to be divided by girls/boys.
: It's important to bring clothing suitable for high temperatures. With the sun shining bright, lightweight and breathable fabrics are key to staying comfortable throughout the day. It's also wise to pack a few layers just in case the weather turns slightly chilly, especially during the evenings or early mornings.
All the meals provided will be prepared by an external chef and the food is going to be prepared in the school kitchen. Adjacent to the kitchen space is the dining hall, where meals are typically served. If anyone has any dietary restrictions or is vegetarian, the organization will accommodate volunteer needs.
There are going to be breaks for snacks.
