Travelwise
Travelwise is a lively, interactive training course for young people going away on an expedition. The course is tailored to the young people's itinerary, and is themed around problem prevention and staying physically and psychologically healthy. Topics covered will vary according to the itinerary, but could include:
- Food and hygiene-related illness
- Dehydration
- Stress
- Fitness problems
- Sun and heat related problems
- Infectious diseases
- Skin infections
- Insect bites
- Animal-related problems
- Altitude sickness
- Managing first aid incidents
The training involves small-group collaboration throughout to draw up ideas of what problems may arise, and rules to prevent the problems from occurring. The day will culminate in the group deciding on ten “golden rules” for staying healthy on the trip.
There will also be an opportunity for the students to discuss any worries or concerns they may have about any health aspect of the trip.
