    Walking/Camping Society

    Current
      A society that focuses on enjoying the great outdoors and the wonders of the countryside. It would offer day walk activities (local and further afield in the UK) and camping events (overnight). We would tackle challenging terrain and more lighter walks, to allow a variety of abilities to get involved. I think the initial premise is fantastic, but it would take a fair amount of planning/organising, especially concerning kit (i.e. tents) and transport (i.e. to the Peak District).
