SUMMARY:CMUK Annual May Family Camp 2026
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to share that registration is now open for Chinmaya Mission UK’s Family Camp 2026! \nThe May bank holiday family camp with Brahmacharini Shripriyaji is inspired by the Gita Panchamrit – our 75 year anniversary project focusing on five core Bhagavad Gita verses. These verses have been chosen for their simple yet profound guidance\, offering a path to inner strength and spiritual clarity\, teaching self-upliftment\, selfless action\, surrender\, and divine grace\, distilled from the Gita’s vast wisdom for daily life. \nAdult sessions will be with Brni Shirpriyaji and the main children’s sessions will be run by our Bala Vihar sevaks. There will be lots of group-centric activities and family satsang time for all. \nDates: 23th – 25th May (Bank Holiday Weekend) \nLocation: Warwick University Conference Centre \nRegister now: https://forms.gle/PLKRidJMfbzB32eq7 \nContact: familycampcmuk@gmail.com\n07956 636 525
