A really enjoyable walk around Attermire and Stainforth teaching navigation to Windmill Youth Group. Visited a few caves and waterfalls along the way. Catrigg Force was particularly impressive today with all the rain we've had.

Windmill Youth Group at Malham Cove. These guys will breeze through their DofE when they come to the assessment. It was a pleasure to help them on their way.

Tick bites should be taken seriously for the potential to develop Lyme's disease. We have a section on dealing with them in our FREE The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award course notes. Not everyone who gets a tick bite develops the "bull's eye" rash. lupineadventure.co.uk/images/downloa…

Next time you talk to Johnny Inglesport remember that he's probably just broke the ice on some freezing cold pool somewhere and been for a dip. RT Johnny Hartnell: #skinnydipping #ingleton #ingletonwaterfalls

Rock fall at Gordale Scar. It doesn't affect the scramble but you have to walk over the rubble to get to the base.

A busy week with @groundworkBBOR @PrincesTrust Team O126. Lots of fears overcome, lots of challenges faced and conquered. It's always a rewarding week at work helping people develop and preparing them for work.

A successful start to the residential for @groundworkBBOR @PrincesTrust Team Ash4

A gorgeous weekend working for Lupine Adventure Co-op 🧗‍♀️🏔️ on a Bronze The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award training around the Ilkley area. Great kids, great weather and no mud on the campsite.

Important info if you cave or organise Y3P RT Council for the Northern Caving Community: The owners of High Birkwith Farm have decided not to allow parking on their land anymore. Access to the caves is still allowed free of charge but you must park elsewhere and walk. cncc.org.uk/cave/calf-holes

A tough week for everyone involved with @groundworkBBOR @PrincesTrust Team O127. We had beautiful weather but some hard challenges to overcome. There were some great individual performances and attitudes.

I should really get out to the Forest of Bowland more often, it's a beautiful area. Working with Windmill Youth Group this weekend practicing The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award expedition skills. Sunday's weather was interesting, luckily the group was more than up to the challenge.

Team R149 from @groundworkBBOR @PrincesTrust were so nice last week it didn't feel like work. Really enjoyable week in the Yorkshire Dales.

You might be aware that Cave Rescue Org CRO had a very busy last weekend and, sadly, a caving incident ended in a fatality. Please, if you can, offer a donation. They help anyone in difficulty on their patch of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, entirely voluntarily. grough.co.uk/magazine/2019/…

A dry day for Team B from King Edward VI High School for Girls on their The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Gold assessment with Lupine Adventure Co-op 🧗‍♀️🏔️ in the Yorkshire Dales. Here they are positively loving my geological chat at the top of Malham Cove, honest. DofE North #wearedofe #iamdofe #getoutside
