the tent, stove etc were to be supplied by the expedition company that provides some training and supervision (from afar, GPS tracker).
I guess this means the kids will have the recommended kit at least, even if it weighs a tonne. Must be chaos on day 1 parent drop off kit check otherwise.
The current plan is to do the two day expedition this summer but without the overnight bit, parents expected to wild camp with their own kids then clear off in the morning.
Ftfy?
Also refunds not available.

It's a great idea but my daughter tells me the fun is camping with her mates and if we were caught camping as a larger group I expect she would be chucked off. She has camped countless times with me and doesn't think the idea of doing another night with me is especially interesting. Blooming kids growing up.
Pleasingly she is planning an independent camping trip with her mates for when things go back to normal.

My daughter didn't do her bronze DofE last year because of lockdown but if she had done so the tent, stove etc were to be supplied by the expedition company that provides some training and supervision (from afar, GPS tracker).
