A walk on the wild side, for Scout Leaders
Peak – the GLSW/Surrey Mountain Scout Active Support Unit – have set their dates for 2023 training weekends.
So if you’re a Scout Leader and would you like to spend a weekend in the mountains of Snowdonia – or navigate around the Ashdown Forest (and you can play Pooh sticks, if you’d like) -with other Scout Leaders, read on!
Whether you just want to gain some experience of hillwalking for the 1st time or you want to learn some key mountain skills or work towards leading others in the hills or navigate in the countryside – then these weekends are for you. If you wish Peak will provide assessment for those wanting to gain a Scouts Adventurous Activity Permit
These weekends are run by Peak ASU, an Active Support Unit run jointly by GLSW and Surrey Scout Counties and made up of leaders who are also hillwalking and climbing trainers and assessors and have been working together as a team for many years. Peak support and train other leaders and Beaver/Cub/Scout/Explorer leaders and lead groups in the hills and mountains and navigation.
