Looking for someone with Scout Cave Authorisation in South Wales

[jiant]

Hello all.

My Scout Troop is coming to South Wales on Summer camp between 13 and 20 August and I was wondering if there was anyone in the area who has a Scout Caving Authorisation who would be able to take them caving.

Alternatively, is there anyone who could "examine" me for the authorisation (I need to check up on hte procedure).

Hi,

I see I was mentioned here. Did your Trip go OK? I do recall Rhys mentioning something about then. More importantly as a Scout Leader & Caver why do you not have your own Scout Caving Permit? You can get in touch with an Assessor via www.scoutcaving.com Getting a trip run by someone else is good, but does nothing for the future. Scout Cave Leaders are thin on the ground. There is a desperate need for more!
