Selection and Training There will be three training weekends for the Uganda trip. These will hopefully help us all get used to being with one another and working together. Dates for these trips are as follows: 12th - 13th November - Streatley Youth Hostel. Walking to Streatley from Theale via Pangbourne and then back again along the Thames Path to finish at Rivermead Leisure Centre. This training walk covered 18 miles over two days. Students were sponsored to complete the walk with everyone tied together with string. This was to raise money for the community project part of our trip. See Photos here. 17th - 19th March - Another local training weekend designed to put a few miles on our legs before the big trek! 5th - 7th May - Snowdonia, North Wales. A weekend in a mountain hut - more miles on the legs but this time the miles will be slightly more upwards in direction (its difficult to find big hills to practise on in Berkshire!)
