How to Apply

This page describes the application process for navigation weekends and other trips

Step 1- Complete an Application Form

In your application form you introduce yourself and provide necessary information to enable your application to proceed. You can indicate what trip you want to come on and on what date, and order maps, compasses and any rental equipment if required.

Step 2 - Check your email

When I receive your application I will contact you by email and answer any questions you may have, and will attach an invoice for the trip you are booking onto plus any map and compass orders. I may need to ask you a few more questions before issuing your invoice.

Step 3 - Pay your invoice

Your booking is not confirmed until your payment has been received. If left unpaid, your place on the trip could be taken by someone else.

Once paid, your booking is confirmed. You will receive a confirmation email and an information pack with everything you need to know to prepare and attend the weekend.

Step 4 - Complete a medical form

This can be done any time before the trip but is mandatory. Ideally you would do this soon after your application. Please don’t leave this until last minute. The form is required for your safety on the trip.

Step 5 - Read the Risk Assessment

It is important that you understand the risks involved in a wilderness hike. The risk assessment document explains the risks and measures that will be taken to minimize those risks. Please read this document.

Step 6 - Complete a Waiver Form

This can be done any time before the trip but is mandatory. It is to make sure you are aware of the risks and have accepted them and confirm that you still want to come.
