The UK has a famously unpredictable climate so it's best to be prepared for weather that’s sunny one minute and raining the next.  To make it easier, here’s a list of items you should consider packing.   
Essentials  

Suitable footwear such as waterproof walking boots that provide ankle support and good grip  
Waterproof and windproof jacket 
Comfortable clothing (jeans & waterproof capes are not suitable)  
Mid-layer(s) to keep you warm. Fleeces make a good choice
Waterproof overtrousers  
Gloves and a warm hat  
Rucksack with waterproof liner 
Flask for hot drinks   
Water bottle (at least 1 litre capacity)  
Sunscreen  
UV sunglasses  

For holidays operating October through to the end of March, please also bring the following on your walks:

spare warm clothing
spare high energy food
head torch and spare batteries
please note for the October to March season your waterproof jacket needs to offer a high level of waterproofing and wind resistance, and a hood. Look for a waterproof jacket with sealed/taped seams and a minimum HH (hyrodstatic head - this is the rating given on waterproof jackets) of 10,000mm+

Recommended  

Several base layers (long-sleeve or short-sleeve)  
Cushioned walking socks to avoid blisters  
First aid kit, including plasters and insect repellent and tick remover tool
Sit mat   
Waterproof pouch for valuables  
Rubbish bag (remember to always leave no trace)

Our experienced and knowledgeable volunteer leaders undergo a thorough assessment to lead you on your holiday and are delighted to share their knowledge and enthusiasm with you. Please ensure you complete and hand in your registration form on arrival and let the leader know about any medical problems you may have. This may be useful in the event of a problem on the walk and will be treated confidentially by the leader.  
In The Event Of A Problem  
If you become separated from your group, please stay where you are. Your leader will retrace their steps to find you. 
All our leaders carry a mobile phone, group shelter, spare maps and a compass. In the unlikely event your leader is incapacitated, please use any emergency kit in their rucksack and call the emergency services (call 999 in the UK, or 112 overseas).  
Please then try to call the hotel where you are staying to let them know there is a problem.  
If you have any cause for complaints regarding accommodation, you should notify your leader who can then attempt to rectify the problem.  
Ticks  
Ticks are tiny creatures that live in vegetation and can attach themselves to passing animals or walkers and may carry a risk of Lyme Disease. Please refer to NHS advice and guidelines for information prior to your holiday.
