The Lowland Leader Award is nationally accredited and developed by Mountain Training, it is suitable for a wide range of people including Teachers and Youth Leaders who wish to take students on walks, or to run the expedition section of the DofE award.
The leadership opportunities for Lowland Leaders are varied and far reaching, from the South West Coast Path to the Great Glen Way; walking in lowland areas can be no less spectacular than walking high up in the mountains.
There are four stages in the scheme:
- Attend a two day Training Course. We often run ours over a weekend with an evening session.
- Complete a consolidation period to increase your experience and knowledge.
- Attend and complete a two day Assessment Course.
- Continue to stay current and up to date.
