The Outjoyment Report: Does camping make you happier?

The results are in: happy campers really do exist! The Outjoyment Report is a new study that shows camping and outdoor enjoyment are good for your mental health and well-being. Commissioned by The Camping and Caravanning Club, the report was done by academics at Liverpool John Moores University and Sheffield Hallam University and included a survey of nearly 11,000 campers and non-campers. It assessed attitudes towards the benefits of all types of camping, including motorhomes, caravans, tents and even glamping. The results? It showed overwhelmingly that campers enjoy better well-being, feel more connected to nature and are less stressed. Matt and Keith talk to Dr Adele Doran, one of the leading academics on the study, about her view of the importance of the results. Simon McGrath, from The Camping and Caravanning Club, talks to us about why they felt it was important to commission the study. Candy Evans gives her view as an experienced journalist on how this study can influence the industry and beyond and what we can do to raise awareness of the findings.
