This course meets the requirements of various national governing bodies such as: British Association of Snowsport Instructors, British Canoeing/Paddle UK, British Cycling, Lowland and Mountain Leader, and others but please check your specific governing body/insurance requirements and contact us to discuss if you are unsure of compliance.

On open/public courses we have identified suitable areas within walking distance but for private courses (at your own venue) we need to discuss this in detail: not all workplaces will be in a suitable location for this course to be delivered.
