support women on the road
for some women, a campervan isn’t a holiday.
🚐💛 For some women, a campervan isn’t a holiday. It’s the only home they have.
When I started Ladies Campervan Club, I imagined a community of women enjoying trips, making friends and finding freedom on the road.
But behind the beautiful sunsets and happy van-life videos, there is another reality.
Women are contacting me through our group and TikTok because they feel unsafe. Some cannot afford to heat their vans, pay essential bills or even buy food. For some, living in a van isn’t the adventure they chose — it’s the alternative to sleeping on the streets.
These women are part of our community. They deserve warmth, food, safety and somewhere to turn without feeling ashamed to ask for help.
I don’t have the spare money to support them myself, much as I wish I did. So I’ve set up a Buy Me a Coffee fundraising page to raise money towards food, heating and other essential needs for women in our campervan community who are struggling.
If you can afford to donate, even the price of a coffee could help. Please only give what you comfortably can.
If you can’t donate, sharing this appeal is another way to help it reach someone who can.
I never expected this to become part of running the club, but now that women are reaching out, I want to do what I can — with your help.
Thank you for reading, sharing and helping us look after women in our community.

privacy and safety
privacy matters in a friendly community.
Draft member-facing documentation for the LCC website. This should be legally checked before launch, but it gives members clear expectations from day one.
What LCC collects
Application details, contact details, postcode area, campervan interests, membership status, payment status, admin review notes and member-submitted content.
Verification evidence
Selfie and photo ID evidence is used only for manual membership review. Access should be limited to authorised admins, with audit logs and short retention.
Member visibility
Members can use a nickname. Legal names and identity evidence are for admin verification, not ordinary member display.
Member areas
Private events, maps, community posts, saved items, attendee lists and help guides are for verified active members only and must not be shared outside LCC.
Location safety
The platform should show places and events, not live member locations. Members stay in control of personal travel plans and meet-up arrangements.
GDPR rights
Members can request access, correction or deletion of their personal data where legally possible. Identity, safety and financial records may need limited retention.
Retention guide
Keep account and payment records while membership is active. Keep rejected application records only as long as needed for safeguarding, disputes or legal requirements.
Security controls
Recommended controls include HTTPS, role-based admin access, strong admin codes or MFA, Cloudflare protections, secure uploads, R2 private storage and D1 audit records.
Cookies and analytics
Use essential cookies for sign-in. Any analytics, marketing pixels or third-party embeds should be listed here before launch with opt-in where required.
Contact and escalation
Members should be able to contact LCC about privacy, safety, account access, content removal, reports and verification appeals.
