Before you start your hike, each person needs to take some Emergency Cards.
These cards are to be filled in in the event of an emergency.
To see a page of 8 cards, click here.
Some of the information must be filled in before each expedition. This includes the details of the Home Contact and Local base.
On the back of the card, the Scouts or Explorer Scouts should record every piece of information about the incident.
