Hi All,
I’ve a confession to make – any time I’m in the UK, I never worry too much about having a few £’s in my pocket when I get home. It’s very likely I’ll be there again before too long & I’ll use it then. A lot of people are the same – you may be one of them.
If so, you may be planning to give some of the cash you have kept to your son / daughter when going to camp.
Just a quick note about “old” £5 notes. These look like:

These notes are not being accepted by any shops or businesses since 5th May 2017.
Because of this, we will NOT be accepting those old £5 notes into camp bank. Also, please don’t give them to them to bring – it’ll only lead to disappointment as they won’t be able to spend them.
You can read more about this at: Daily Telegraph Old £5 Note
Just for interest, the new (valid) £5 note looks like:

As ever, give us a call with any queries…
Enda.
