CampFinder Asia Verified

Independent Quality & Safeguarding Review for Camps That Take Standards Seriously

Running a great camp is hard work.

You’re balancing safety, staffing, programmes, parents’ expectations, regulations, and real children with real needs — often under time pressure and scrutiny.

CampFinder Asia Verified exists to support camps that care about doing things properly — and to help parents easily identify camps they can trust.

This is not a tick-box exercise.
It’s an independent quality review designed to recognise good practice, identify gaps, and support continuous improvement.

What Is CampFinder Asia Verified?

CampFinder Asia Verified is an independent audit and quality mark for camps that meet clear standards across:

  • safeguarding and child protection

  • health and safety

  • staffing and leadership

  • programme quality

  • inclusion and behaviour management

  • communication with parents

  • facilities and operational readiness

Verified camps are highlighted in a dedicated “Verified” category on CampFinder Asia and can display the CampFinder Asia Verified badge.

This signals to parents that your camp has been reviewed against real-world standards — not just listed in a directory.

Why This Matters to Camps

Parents are increasingly informed and cautious.
They don’t just want fun — they want reassurance.

Being CampFinder Asia Verified helps you:

  • Stand out in a crowded marketplace

  • Build immediate trust with new families

  • Answer safety and safeguarding questions confidently

  • Demonstrate professionalism and transparency

  • Convert more enquiries into bookings

Most importantly, it shows you take quality seriously — even when nobody is watching.

How the Process Works

1. Apply for Verification

You apply as part of your CampFinder Asia subscription (or upgrade your listing).

2. Structured Audit

We carry out a structured audit using a clear review framework.
This may include:

  • document review

  • provider questionnaire

  • clarification calls where needed

3. Clear Outcome

Camps fall into one of the following categories:

CampFinder Asia Verified

You meet the required standards and are listed as Verified.

⚠️ Verified – Improvement Pathway

You meet core safety requirements but have areas to improve before full verification.

Support to Help You Improve

If improvements are needed, we don’t leave you guessing.

We can support you with:

  • safeguarding policy templates

  • staff training guidance

  • programme structure advice

  • behaviour and inclusion frameworks

  • parent communication improvements

You choose whether to implement changes independently or with our support.

Verification is about raising standards, not excluding good camps.

What Parents see

Parents see:

  • a Verified badge on your listing

  • inclusion in a Verified Camps category

  • clear messaging that your camp has been independently reviewed

This reduces friction, builds confidence, and shortens decision time.

What This Is (and Isn’t)

This is:

  • independent

  • practical

  • supportive

  • focused on real camp delivery

This is not:

  • a government accreditation

  • a legal certification

  • a pass/fail inspection

  • a pay-for-a-badge schem

Verification must be earned — and maintained.

CampFinder Asia Verified is ideal for camps that:

  • care about safeguarding and quality

  • want to stand out for the right reasons

  • are open to feedback

  • want to build long-term trust with families

If you’re already doing things well, this helps you show it.
If you’re improving, this helps you get there faster.
