Hill and Moorland Leader

The Hill and Moorland Leader scheme is perfect for experienced hill walkers who want to lead groups on moorland and hills within the UK but do not wish to lead in mountainous terrain.  It is a popular qualification for those leading D of E and Ten Tors, school and recreational groups and is perfect for areas such as Dartmoor, Exmoor, parts of the Brecon Beacons, The Peak District and Yorkshire Moors.

Run over 3 days our courses train and assess the personal and leadership skills needed to safely lead in remote upland environments and offer a quality experience for your groups.

We aim to make all of our courses enjoyable and informative.  We also have a policy of making reasonable adjustments to ensure that our courses are as accessible as possible.

...The attitude, knowledge and ability to engage course members while imparting knowledge was excellent. Learning was pitched at an appropriate level to the needs of individual course members. Professional throughout in their approach to the course, I was consistently impressed by the staff.

...you never stop learning and I learnt a lot in the three days of assessment - both from the instructors but also the other candidates.

...Knowing I was in the hands of competent professionals that were objectively critical.  This helped me to validate my own performance level.  I felt the assessment was real and not a box ticking exercise.
