Preparing for your visit

Teachers and group leaders need to ensure that all pupils or members of their group are properly prepared for the potential of poor weather and attend with:

• Appropriate footwear, which means boots/shoes with grip soles and ankle support
• Protective clothing for wet, windy and cold conditions or hot and sunny conditions
• Packed lunch if required
• Sufficient water and liquids for the duration of the visit
• First Aid Kit (the Rangers are first aid trained and will carry a first aid kit themselves)

Additionally you might want to bring the following along:

• Midge repellent or midge nets
• Sun cream
• Anti bacterial wipes or gel
• Tick remover or sharp tweezers
• Mobile phone
• Camera for some action photos and magnificent views
• Bags for disposing of litter
• Clipboards and worksheets if required.
