Dogs - If you bring a dog it must be on a lead and under control at all times, I use a harness with mine and would be happy to offer advice on buying one, you must also be able to help your dog over stiles etc. where needed.

First Aid - I will always have a kit in my bag, but you can bring your own basic First Aid Kit (Plasters, Bite and Sting Cream, Suncream and if you use paracetamol - or similar as the group one will not contain this.)

The walk includes a short mobilisation of joints prior to walking and a cool down stretch at the end.
