 lowing advice:\n\n 	U16s to be accompanied by an adult for the duration of

 wish to carry a mobile phone.\n 	Carry all necessary personal medication w
 here appropriate (inhaler\, EpiPen).\n 	Ensure your head torch has good ba
 ttery power. \n 	Wear bright/hi-viz clothing – this helps you be seen by
  other participants\, park users and a deterrent to anyone who may wish to
  cause harm.\n 	The forecast is cold/wet a waterproof jacket is mandatory\
 , also bring a hat and gloves.\n 	Return to download and register your ret
 urn after 45 minutes\, even if you have not completed your course.\n 	Ther
