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
