Outjoyment Live: Camping and Caravanning Club to pitch campsite at busy city centre locations

The Camping and Caravanning Club is set to host an immersive campsite experience at busy city centre locations around the UK as part of National Camping and Caravanning Week.

The annual celebration of camping, touring and the incredible outdoors takes place from 29th May to 4th June.

The campsite experience tour, called Outjoyment Live, will feature a bespoke sensory pod containing a campsite setting complete with the sounds and smells of the countryside.

Visitors can step inside the sensory pod and listen to a special meditation podcast with Club President Julia Bradbury before switching off from city life and tuning into the relaxing sounds of the campsite.

Outjoyment Live, highlights research published in The Outjoyment Report, which was carried out by a team of academic experts from Liverpool John Moores University and Sheffield Hallam University.

The study revealed those who go camping are happier than those who don’t, with a study of 10,992 people finding 48 per cent of campers feeling generally happy almost every day compared to just 35 per cent of non-campers.
