Introducing Kim
Khickster Camps and Pools was founded in 2021 by Kimberley Hicks, who has had a passion for providing high-quality experiences and entertainment from a young age.
What began as a dream has grown into a trusted holiday camp provider in Canterbury and Thanet, as well as offering our Pools4Schools programme to schools in East Kent. We also have a sister company called Khickster Events where we offer experience days, parties, community events, games hire, school events, after school clubs & much more.
Our Story
Khickster began during the COVID-19 lockdown, when founder Kimberley set out to bring fun and laughter into homes through online parties, virtual games, themed celebrations, and her weekly Family Friday Quiz.
​
As restrictions eased, Khickster moved into in-person children’s parties and soon expanded into holiday camps, inspired by Kimberley’s background in education, psychology, childcare, and her experience at Camp Nock-A-Mixon in the USA.
​
Today, Khickster offers over fifteen services, including school events, holiday camps, team-building days, community events, camping weekends, and the Pools4Schools programme. At its core, Khickster is about creating safe, welcoming experiences where people can have fun, build confidence, and make lasting memories.
