The present invention provides a camping assembly (10) comprising an awning (18) which is releasably secured to a side of a caravan although in other embodiments the awning (18) may be releasably secured to the side of a tent/trailer tent/folding camper. The awning comprises a canopy and a network of inflatable air poles (26). The awning may be inflated by a removable pump or by an embedded pump or by air donated from a further inflatable camping structure. The awning comprises a donor valve (16). The donor valve is arranged to inflate a camping accessory (20, 22, 24) by donating a volume of air from the air poles to the camping accessory. In this way, the camping accessory can be inflated very quickly and the removal of the air does not significantly impact the structural stability of the awning. This provides a readily available and accessible air source.
