Organised by Warwick Town Council and its twin towns, applications are now open to find the four young people, aged between 16 and 21, to represent Warwick. The four will become ambassadors for Warwick and will travel to Havelberg for Eurocamp 2026.

During Eurocamp the group will be part of a nature conservation project in partnership with Haus der Flüsse, Havelberg, the biosphere reserve.

Cllr Dave Skinner, Chair of Community and Culture said: "Eurocamp is a unique opportunity for young people in Warwick to step outside their comfort zone, experience a different culture and represent our town on an international stage. The friendships, confidence and practical skills gained during the two weeks stay with participants will remain long after they return home.

"We strongly encourage eligible young people to apply and make the most of this fully funded opportunity. Previous Eurocamp participants have been positive ambassadors for Warwick and made value friendships while taking part in a fun community project."
