Kit List For Activities (except from campouts, which have a longer kit list)
WHAT TO WEAR & BRING WITH YOU
Clothing Layers – please wear suitable clothing for the walk, walking / outdoor style clothing. I have provided an example of what this looks like below:
It is important to wear a ‘layering system’ of clothing as follows:
• Base layer – long-sleeved T-shirt
• Mid layer – fleece
• Outer shell – waterproof/breathable walking jacket and over-trousers
• Walking socks and walking trousers
• Walking boots / Walking shoes. These are ideally waterproof with good ankle support and sturdy soles. If you don't have any, study shoes / trainers are accepted but you may be turned away if you don't have the appropriate footwear.
Wear clothing that is made from synthetic fibres, which are quick drying and help ‘wick’ moisture away from your skin. Do NOT wear cotton (especially jeans) as cotton soaks up moisture.
What to bring
• Sunhat, sunscreen and sunglasses (spring to early autumn)
• Warm hat and waterproof gloves (early spring, autumn and winter)
• Spare fleece and spare gloves in your rucksack
• Head-torch, and spare batteries (early spring, autumn and winter)
• Wristwatch
• Water bottle (at least 1 litre) and a flask of hot drink
• Snacks / energy snack food (dried fruit, nuts, muesli bars, chocolate bars etc)
• Waterproof bag for your mobile phone.
• Small personal First Aid kit (antiseptic wipes, plasters, paracetamol etc)
• Medications (if applicable)
• Rucksack (to carry all of this in!)
Put everything in a waterproof bag inside your rucksack, preferably a dry bag.
• Walking poles are a good idea on challenging walks
