Camp Leaders Kit


This is my personal remnider, and I only take what is relevant for each camp. I also give it to PLs. Items in BOLD I always take

Personal Effects (as required)

  • Personal Kit same as scouts
  • Razor and foam or power lead
  • Personal Medication Make sure that someone else knows you are taking it
  • Drivers License, insurance, RAC/AA Card, Credit Cards
  • Camera and Film
  • Mobile Phone Let the PLs know where you keep it, but don't let anyone phone home, almost guaranteed homesickness
  • Whistle
  • Unfeasibly large torch
  • Stash of mini-mars bars, instant morale boost

Medical

Ideally this should be available at all time to anyone trained to use it. In practice this can be difficult
  • Troop Health Records including leaders
  • Troop First Aid Kit from attached sheet
  • Accident Book
  • First Aid Book for use by less experienced people in an emergency
  • Locked Medication Box to store Scout's personal medication and health records
  • Sanitary towels Not only for emergencies but as large pressure pads for first aid emergencies
