Expense Claim Forms

Leaders are encouraged to claim expenses for mileage incurred when doing your "walkout". 

They can be paid direct into your bank account if account details are provided.

If you do not wish to keep the money why not consider donating to Leicestershire & Rutland Air Ambulance or a charity of your choice? You will need to do this yourself as Ramblers are also a charity and are unable by law to make donations to a different charity.

First Aid Kits

What should be included in a First Aid Kit?

It’s best practice to carry a basic first aid kit on every group walk. Some groups invest in shared kits to pass between walk leaders, re-stocking when necessary.  The items you choose to carry will depend on the difficulty and type of walk you are leading, but a basic first aid kit may contain:

 Low adherent dressings / gauze swabs

 Triangular bandage(s)

 Wound dressings (various sizes)

 Woven bandage(s)

 Latex free plasters

 CPR disposable face shield

 Compeed / blister plasters

 Foil survival blanket

 Micropore tape

 Antiseptic wipes

 Nitrile or vinyl gloves

 Scissors

 Safety pins

 Burn dressing

 Tweezers
