Venture Unit

The section usually meets on Friday at 7.45pm.

In this section a chairman, secretary, and treasurer is elected from the members themselves. The Unit is headed by a Venture Leader, whose role is to motivate the members and to ensure that all is done in line with the rules.

Their programme is different from the other sections; it is mostly based on training for leadership, and hands on, to do the things that they have learnt about in the younger sections (environment, group, community work). They organise hikes, expeditions, crevassing, canoeing, visits, badger carting and other activities available on the Island. They also camp on the raft. During their hikes they organise their own menu, expenses, and make their own route.

The proper practice in Management and leadership start in this section. They also help the Quartermaster and do maintenance works for the group and equipment.
