The problem
Intervention: Residential camps providing structured routines, peer support, safe inclusive spaces and peer-based learning for children with IBD
Who it was tested with: Children with inflammatory bowel disease across multiple countries.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"Studies of IBD camps across multiple countries show consistent psychosocial benefits, including improved QoL, social functioning, confidence, disease knowledge, and reduced isolation." The review synthesises outcomes from multiple studies to demonstrate consistent positive effects of structured peer-based residential interventions for children with a chronic illness.
