Camping Leader
The Camping Leader Scheme was launched by Mountain Training in March 2022 and replaces the Expedition Skills Module. It is a completely standalone scheme and can be accessed by anyone that has an interest in supervising camping activities or for those who wish to extend the remit of their Lowland Leader Award or Hill & Moorland Leader Award. The training is equally applicable to groups using commercial campsites and wild campsites, which makes it a great award for people involved with DofE Expeditions, Scout & Guide camps, and Ten Tors Training. CHMAS is excited to be running this award so please click on the image to find out more.
