What to bring

All equipment provided. Please dress for the weather conditions on the day (waterproofs and wellies etc.) We have uneven ground and gravel pathways at Blashford so we recommend a sturdy boot or trainers regardless of the weather.

There are no cafe facilities on site so we recommend bringing a picnic to enjoy after the activities. We will gladly refill any water bottles as required - just ask a member of staff or volunteer.
