Morning all, I am an ML, I usually work on DofE. I've been asked to take out a group of home-schooled under-18s on a navigation day in the Brecon Beacons which is an area I know well. I don't have an AALA licence so I appreciate that, as I'm being paid, all under 18s will have to be accompanied by a parent or guardian. That has been agreed to.
There are eight young people wanting to come along. I take out groups of 8 on navigation days, I'm comfortable with that ratio. But now I have 8 adults with me as well. I presume I will be responsible for them also? It's starting to look like a bit of a pain.
Anyone else been in this situation? Thoughts? I wonder if I need another ML or just sack it...
