Award Description

The Lowland Leader qualification has been designed for people who wish to lead groups on day walks in lowland countryside and woodland in summer conditions. The majority of the UK and Ireland is made up of this type of terrain so you'll never be short of places to go walking.

This course is run in collaboration with Merseyside Youth Association Outdoor Education Centre.

The Lowland Leader Award has been designed for people who want to lead groups on day walks in lowland countryside and woodland in summer conditions (ideally suited to DofE Bronze and Silver expeditions). The lowland leader training course consists of two days training and will include the following:

1. Leader Responsibilities
2. Leadership and Decision Making
3. Planning and Weather
4. Hazards and Emergency Procedures
5. Equipment
6. Walking styles
7. Navigation
8. Teaching and Learning Skills
9. Access, Conservation and the Environment
10. Background knowledge
