Celebrating International Women’s Day, we honour the many women whose support and courage make a difference every day. Lifting each other up and giving women the space to grow and shine their light provides the warmth for us all to thrive.

We’ve refreshed our look, but we’re still the Basecamp you know and trust.

Our old logo reflected our beginnings in 2020, helping someone experiencing homelessness. Since then, we’ve grown into a community mental health initiative, offering counselling, trauma interventions, neurodiverse programmes, nature-based and wellbeing workshops, and a training centre for future counsellors.

If you’re looking for tents and backpacks, you might be disappointed, but if you’re looking for counselling, community, and care, you’ve come to the right place.

Our new logo reflects the care, connection, and support at the heart of everything we do. We hope you love it as much as we do!
