The Expeditions Society exists to encourage and support student led expeditions through the development of skills and the dissemination of information. We are a group of enthusiastic climbers, walkers, mountain bikers, canoeists and general outdoor enthusiasts.

That's all well and good, but what do we actually do?

We have three types of activities:

• Practical days, weekends and weeks away in wilderness areas. Enjoy yourself whilst practising existing skills and learning new ones.
• Training seminars and discussions. Learn the skills you need to survive in the wilderness and plan your own expeditions. These take place in Aber and at the Royal Geographical Society in London.
• Social events. When we can't be on an expedition, we can at least get together and dream about it! Also a chance to sign up for forthcoming events.

If you have any other ideas for activities you would like to do, come along to our social events (see the events page) and persuade us to do it!

For your protection the society is a affiliated to the British Mountaineering Council which provides additional insurance and access to the best training and advice on outdoor activities. Members of the society regularly attend BMC training courses.

Our constitution is available on the web.
