★ Heatwave Watch ★

Weather & Survival

Sunshine and climbing heat for camp weekend — comfy low-20s on Friday, nudging up to around 30°C by Sunday, with a proper heatwave landing the week after. Here's the live picture for The Fort and how to keep the whole crew safe in the sun.

Fetching…

The Fort · Dulwich

💧 Water, water, water

Drink before you're thirsty. Pack ~2–3 litres per person per day — more for kids tearing about. Squash & electrolyte sachets keep little ones sipping.

🧴 Slip, slop, slap

SPF30+ on everyone, topped up every couple of hours. Wide-brim hats, sunnies and loose light clothes — fold it into the "Dress Like an American" look.

⛱️ Stay in the shade

Lucky us — we're under the trees. Rig extra tarps or a gazebo and take it easy between 11am and 3pm, when the sun is fiercest.

⛺ Tents become ovens

A zipped-up tent can top 50°C. Never nap a child — or leave anyone or a pet — inside during the day. Pitch in shade, open every vent.

🚨 Spot heat exhaustion

Headache, dizziness, cramps, clammy pale skin? Move to shade, cool down, sip water. Confused, hot dry skin, or unwell? That's heatstroke — call 999.

🔥 Fire care

The ground is tinder-dry. Fires only in the site's metal fireplaces, a bucket of water beside them, never left unattended — and check there's no burn ban.

🐶 Mind the dogs

Shade and water for four-legged campers too. Hot ground burns paws, so walk them early morning or late evening, not in the midday heat.

🌙 Sleep cooler

It drops overnight. Light bedding, a battery fan, a damp flannel and open vents make for a far comfier night under canvas.

★ Strictly Tongue-in-Cheek ★

The Fantasy Fringe

A wholly imaginary programme of workshops for the frazzled modern parent. None of these are real. Sadly. Please do not actually tattoo, tether, Velcro or tube-feed anyone.

A

Registration Tent · All Weekend

QR-Code Child Tagging

PERMANENT-ISH · INK OPTIONAL

Mislaid a child? Never again. We tattoo a discreet QR code to your offspring and register them online — one quick scan reunites lost property with rightful owner. Lamination available.

Scan & reclaim

B

Decompression Dome · Drop-in

iPad Separation Tent

UNPOWERED · STRICTLY OFFLINE

For the screen-weaned child mid-withdrawal: a calm, dim space where they may gaze upon small, switched-off black rectangles — grounding themselves on the void — until the trembling subsides and equilibrium returns.

Free · BYO dead device

C

Hydration Station · Dusk till…

Parents' Wine Quenching Tent

TUBES PROVIDED

Grown-ups recline as house red is gravity-fed straight from hanging buckets via individual tubing. No glass to hold, no decisions to make. A sommelier shouts "refill" so you needn't move.

£tipsy / session

D

Roped-Off Enclosure

V.I.P. — Very Important Parents

BY SMUGNESS ONLY

A velvet-roped sanctuary for parents of profound self-importance. Complimentary lanyard, a fold-out throne, and the quiet bliss of being just the other side of the rope from everyone else.

Invitation (self-issued)

E

The Stables · Daylight Hours

Child-Tethering Stable

LEADS SUPPLIED

Like a coat-check, but for toddlers. Securely tether your child to our purpose-built stable rail — hay optional — and enjoy a hot drink within sightline. Watered hourly, on the hour.

£3 / tether

F

The Wall · Nap-adjacent

Vertical Crèche

VELCRO + FLEECE

Pop baby into a fluffy Velcro suit and press gently to our soft padded wall. Teletubbies loops at a hypnotic distance. Babies hang happily; parental arms are returned to service.

£fluff / hour

G

The Carousel · Therapeutic

Emotional Baggage Handling

EXCESS WEIGHT WELCOME

A supportive tent where grown-ups process the rich childhood trauma so generously bestowed upon them — by their own children. Tissues, a firepit and knowing nods all provided.

Cathartic · donations

H

The Lab · Anonymous Drop-off

Treat-Testing Lab

GRAMS PER GUMMY

Festival-grade harm reduction for the pick-and-mix generation. Hand in your child's party-bag haul and our white-coated technicians assay the sugar load, flag anything dangerously moreish, and return an honest gram-per-gummy readout. No judgement — just numbers.

Free · harm reduction
