You will need warm clothing in Autumn and Spring and footwear suitable for the school room and for the playing fields. When it's dark you will need a torch to read the map. Everything else will be provided. If you want to buy equipment, especially compasses, you are welcome to try out the club's loan compasses first during one of the sessions.Do I need to join the Orienteering club?
