Wellspring in the heart of the beautiful County of Devon

Wellspring United Kingdom is located on the Streatham Campus of Exeter University, in the heart of the beautiful county of Devon in the South West of England. While close to the historic city of Exeter, it is within easy reach of miles of coastline and rolling countryside.

The Streatham campus, the University’s largest site in Exeter, is built around a country estate overlooking the city and is readily acknowledged as one of the most beautiful in the country. Many students say they simply fell in love with the campus when they came to visit – its lakes, parkland, woodland and gardens make it a very special place that offers a safe and enjoyable environment for your summer of fitness and weight loss.

What Campers Say...

Wellspring UK campers change their lives in dramatic ways when they lose weight and get fit. Campers experience greater confidence, new friends, better health, increased energy, and a much improved outlook. Below are a few or the many Wellspring UK success stories.

Ashley C, Alresford, Hamshire
Lost 28 pounds at Wellspring UK and has continued to lose weight at home.

CONFIDENCE AND PERSONALITY SHINE…

Wellspring is primarily a weight loss camp, but it is also a confidence boosting camp. 
One of the things I've noticed the most is that people's confidence and personality is showing through so much more.

When I first went to Wellspring, I was so shy and found it hard to talk to people, but gradually, as time went on, my confidence grew.  I was able to talk to campers more and now I have some fantastic friends that I hope to stay friends with after camp.

MOST REWARDING AND FUN EXPERIENCE…

I would like to say a special thanks to them and all the leaders that have helped me through the hard times here, especially my team leaders, Sophie and Jo.
From the start, they guided me and made me feel so at home here even though I was so homesick.

Overall, I think that my summer here has been the most rewarding and fun experience of my life.  Thank you!

FROM ASHLEY'S DAD…

Ashley started at 207 lbs and now weighs 177 pounds, losing 28 pounds at Wellspring in 8 weeks and another 2 pounds in her first week home, making 30 lbs altogether. We have been walking everyday since she returned and have rejoined our local gym and have been going to teen fit together.

A SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE…

Thank You so much for sending my before and after pictures; can't believe the difference, my home Wellspring programme is going ok, I am still losing weight, and have taken everything that I have learnt at Wellspring on board.

Wellspring has definitely put me on the right path. I do have my up's and down's but I’m coping! Thank you again, Wellspring staff for all you have done for me...I am truly grateful. I hope you are all well, and continue on helping people like myself to have a second chance at life....thank you!

PROUD OF HER CHANGE…

After losing 5 pants sizes and 74 pounds, I can definitely say that Wellspring changed my life! Wellspring taught me not only dieting and exercising but also exposed me to a whole new lifestyle and way of behavior!

I feel so much better about myself, and more confident of how I look and behave. I’m proud of myself for making the change! It’s totally worth it!
