Express Abseil Rigging & Rescue Course – Residential Weekend (Tenative)

We’re looking at running this course but location hasn’t been confirmed yet. Watch this space. Registrations will open once the date is confirmed.

This is an express version of our normal Rigging & Rescue course which will consist of an online theory night. Significant pre-reading, and an intensive weekend. The training sessions will start on the Friday evening.

If you want to build on your skills and work towards being able to take other people out abseiling then this is the workshop for you. Learn how to set up abseils, rig for rescue and get yourself or others out of difficulty. This course aims to get you through the Trained Participant and Assistant Guide levels of the VET qualifications and can also be used to gain OAS qualifications.

The course is suitable for Venturers, Rovers, and Leaders.

The theory night is held at Barra Brui Scout Hall and includes a mix of theory presentations and practical components. There are two theory nights and a practical weekend.

The theory night(s) registration is combined with the practical day for the same course number, you do not need to register separately.

Saturday is at Barra Brui and Sunday at Lindfield Rocks
