We’re thrilled to share the news that the Radio Society of Great Britain (RSGB) has just announced the UK YOTA (Youngsters on the Air) team for the 2025 Summer Camp in Paris!
The YOTA Summer Camp 2025 will be held from 18–25 August at the beautiful and historic Château de Jambville, just outside Paris. Hosted by Réseau des Émetteurs Français (REF), the French national amateur radio society, and supported by IARU, this event brings together young radio enthusiasts from across the world for a week of learning, friendship, and hands-on amateur radio experience.

We’re especially proud to see Leon, Emily, and Sophie among those involved — each with a unique story and supported by the Radio Communication Foundation.

Leon

One of our Arkwright scholars, who studied with the Bath team’s distance learning course and recently passed his Intermediate exam. His commitment and growth have been inspiring to witness.

Emily

We were delighted to fund her amateur radio exam and help supply equipment to Wick School, where her enthusiasm sparked interest among her peers.

Sophie

A passionate young operator who joined us at our last Arkwright Day. Her continued dedication to the hobby reflects the spirit of YOTA.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for these young radio amateurs to represent not only the UK but also the future of our hobby on an international stage.

The Radio Communications Foundation were pleased to be able to help and support them.

Let’s all wish them well as they prepare for an unforgettable week in Paris!
