EXPEDITIONS SOCIETY, University of Wales, Aberystwyth

<BODY> <p><font color="#000099"><font size=+2>Welcome to the web site of the <b>Expeditions Society</b> at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth.</font></font></center> The <b>Expeditions Society</b> exists to encourage and support student led expeditions through the development of skills and the dissemination of information. We do this through regular weekend meetings in the mountains, evening seminars and lectures, social events, the maintenance of a library and pool of equipment, contacts with other bodies (including the British Mountaineering Council and the Royal Geographical Society) and the expertise of our membership. Our members include climbers, walkers, mountain bikers, canoeists, general outdoor enthusiasts and less energetic people with an interest in expeditions. <p>The Society is different to many other University outdoor pursuits groups in that our activities don't have formal leaders. We believe that outdoor pursuits should be undertaken as groups of peers with each member taking responsibilty for themselves. Although we don't provide formal training, all our more experienced members are happy to give less experience members help and advice in any way they can. <p>You are viewing this page because you don't have a frames compatible browser.
