We would like to thank everyone for the huge interest and support of the Essex International Jamboree 2012. We have received an amazing response with group applications which means we have provisionally hit the limit of UK participant group applications to the event.

All new UK group applications will be held on a list until we are able to confirm availability. We anticipate more space will become available as groups confirm their numbers by paying a deposit over the next few months.

Although group applications are being held, adult volunteers aged over 16 can still apply as part of the jamboree staff team and play a part in making the Jamboree happen. Being a member of the staff team is a fantastic opportunity to make use of your skills or learn something new. A wide range of roles are available for any UK or international staff members. This will be an experience of a lifetime bringing together thousands of young people from around the world together to have fun and adventure whilst learning about new cultures and the world around us.

Our online booking system can be accessed here. The system allows both staff and participants to book their places. For staff, a list of available roles are being advertised on our Role Catalogue page.

A non-refundable deposit will be required by 31st January 2012 to secure your place. We will accept payment in UK Sterling by cheque and money transfer (BACS). Details of how to send payments will be included in your confirmation email. The balance of your Jamboree booking must be paid by 15 May 2012.
