Award Description

The Hill and Moorland Leader award is designed for people who want to lead groups in the hill and moorland areas of the UK and Ireland. This award is a wonderful opportunity to learn the leadership skills required to feel confident about taking people out walking. As you may have guessed from the descriptive title of this award, it focuses on non-mountainous terrain.

The Hill and Moorland Leader qualification run by Leading Edge is ideal for walkers who want to learn the skills required for effective group leadership in the hill and moorland areas of the UK and Ireland. This course was formerly known as Walking Group Leader. It is used extensively by those involved with delivering the Duke of Edinburgh's Award as well as many walk leaders and outdoor instructors. Hill and Moorland Leaders operate in terrain that is generally more remote than that used by Lowland Leaders and not as steep or rocky as ground covered by Mountain Leaders. Leading Edge offer a relaxed, open and friendly training course, progressivally taking you through the key group management, navigation and environmental elements. We will help you develop, hone and polish your personal skills, all the time imparting teaching and coaching techniques you can use when working with others. You will leave inspired, motivated and with a personal action plan of what you need to do before coming forward for Hill and Moorland Leader assessment.  This qualification requires no rope work or camping (extra camping module available).  We will meet in one of the meeting rooms in the iconic climbing cafe - Petes Eats in Llanberis where we will start the course with an informal chat and an outline of the Hill and Moorland Leader Award
