It will also be an opportunity for us to pray and worship together ahead of the trip.

There are many places to buy snacks and treats on site, as well as some resources and merchandice in the market place. Please feel free to bring spending money with you.
We are not responsible for looking after your money or your stuff, so remember to keep it safe!
Verso Vineyard is fully covered for public liability. You are not, however, insured against personal accident or injury as a result of an accident or loss of possessions.
We therefore suggest those who feel that additional insurance is necessary to make their own arrangements.
There are morning and evening meetings each day. All youth are expected to attend all of these meetings.
There are also additional optional seminars and events that they can attend throughout the festival.
We will be eating together as a group in our marquees. Meals from dinner on Wednesday to breakfast on Monday are included.
You are welcome to bring your phone to DTI, and there will be charging facilities available in our main marquee.
To use the charging facility you will need to bring a USB cable with a USB A socket (shown below) labelled with your name.
It will not be possible to plug in other chargers or devices that do not use a USB A cable.
Phones should not be left unattended in the marquee and you are responsible for loss or damage of any valuables that you bring with you. Any device left in the marquee overnight will be unplugged.
We do not want phones to be a distraction during the main meetings, if you use them for anything other than taking notes or looking up scripture expect a member of the team to ask you to put them away.
It really helps if you are able to drop off your kit (especially tents and sleeping bags) before departure. This can be dropped off at the following times
Please ensure all luggage is labelled with your name.
We will be camping at DTI. We are asking everyone where possible to either bring their own tent or arrange to share with another youth.
