About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

As part of a project to make the area more attractive to young people, Concordia was asked to organize a workcamp in the Crécy-en-Ponthieu forest. There will be hikes and bike rides around the forest on which you will have the opportunity to learn more about the local flora and fauna. In addition, you will be involved in youth service activities (trips, activities, visits, etc.), the July 14th festivities (French national day) and you will be able to enjoy the nearby beaches of Fort Mahon or Berck.

💼 What the programme involves

You will work on an old wall alongside the road, facing the forest which marks the beginning of several hiking trails. Your tasks will be to clean, brush and paint the wall as well as replacing damaged stones. Several diverse jobs to enhance this charming little forest village will await you.

🏠 Accommodation on site

You will be accommodated in tents in the Crécy-en-Ponthieu football stadium. You will share the different collective tasks and prepare meals together.

📍 About the location

Crécy-en-Ponthieu is located north of Abbeville in the Somme department and the Hauts de France region, close to the coastline, 30km away from Fort-Mahon-Plage and some of the nicest beaches in northern France.

⚠️ Requirements

Remember to bring suitable clothes for working on site. Don’t forget to bring your sleeping bag and a floor mat. Feel free to bring recipes, photos, music or any other specialties from your home country for the group activities organized during the camp.
