TRAVELLING WITH WYRE RAMBLERS
IMPORTANT NOTES:

If you join the coach en-route without prior booking, and the coach exceeds the legal maximum number of passengers, you will be asked to disembark at the River Wyre Hotel.

It would be appreciated if all walkers could return to the coach at the designated time to avoid delays on the return journey. The designated time of departure for return journeys will be made on the coach.

WALKING WITH WYRE RAMBLERS
SAFETY NOTES:

Strong, waterproof boots and waterproof clothing are essential. Remember, it is much colder on the tops, winter or summer, than in the valleys.

However good the weather may appear, bring a complete change of clothing to leave on the coach. Bring food for the day and try to include something hot in a flask; soup or coffee for example.

Map, compass, torch, whistle and first aid kit are carried by Group Leaders and are advised for individuals within each group.

Each party will appoint a leader and a back marker to avoid being split up, other members of the party should neither overtake nor fall behind.

If you get into difficulties, the International Distress Signal is six whistle blasts in quick succession followed by a one minute pause. The acknowledgement is three whistle blasts in quick succession, followed by a one minute pause. In each instance repeat until answered.
