1. You must have a whistle.
2. You must stay at the back of the group at all times while acting as back marker.

4. If a walker wishes to stop for any reason that in your opinion may take a while such as changing gear etc. then you must contact the leader and ask him/her to stop the group.
5. If, as the group is about to depart, you notice that someone is not ready to start walking then you must alert the leader.
6. If in your opinion there is too wide a gap developing between the front and the back of the group you should request the leader to stop.
7. Be vigilant. If you think that a walker is in distress or having difficulty keeping up with the group you should inform the leader.
8. You must wear a high visibility jacket which will be provided by the walk leader.
