Shindig 2026 that’s a WRAP!

What a JOY it was to take 28 young people away to Bassenfell Manor in the Lake District for 3 nights in April.

Shindig is our annual residential trip where we get really serious about having fun, competing in ridiculous challenges, exploring the beautiful lakes and finding every possible way to wear a bandana! We get messy, get real and go a little deeper exploring who God is and what it means to know Him

This year we focused on encounters with Jesus, alongside loads of activities like bible journalling, crafts, Taskmaster challenges, lake walking and sports. In the evenings we had karaoke, challenges and some serious moments of belly laughter! To see more, check out the highlight video below!

Supported by a wonderful team of volunteers and staff, we are celebrating young people encountering Jesus for the first time, Bibles given out, for moments of prayer with young people  

Shindig was made possible by generous partners and churches who support Blank Canvas through financial giving. If you would like to help us make Shindig 2027 happen, then please do head to the bottom of this page
