UKCG Recognition
UK Canyon Guides has had a large growth in participation over the last 12 months and have seen a rapid increase in attendance to the Canyon Guide Courses.
UKCG have now ran courses throughout the UK, Germany, Kenya and Spain.
We now have providers traveling from countries such as Hong Kong & Taiwan traveling to our affiliated centres here in the UK, to become qualified canyon guides. This shows that the quality of our training is being accepted internationally as well as at home here in the UK.
Adventurous Activities Licensing Service (AALS) In April 2017 our Northern Rep attended a consultancy meeting with the Health & Safety Executive Licensing Service (AALS) and has made positive steps forward to becoming an approved course for the Gorge Ghyll Leader environment. The scheme has been praised for the very clear guidance of the pre requisites, training and assessment scheme in place.
We will be inviting inspectors from the Licensing Service to our future training & assessment courses to gain official recognition & approval.
