    ordinary clothes are fine , but an umbrella is a good idea, you never know when it will rain

    if you intend walking around Bristol get good shoes as the terrain is HILLY!!!!

  • Something you can actually lift!!!!

    Bring all the usual gear for dear old rainy England as we have a wide variety of different types of rain and in one week you can sample them all. Also advisable is a rope and a set of crampons due to the steepness of some of the hills.

    Toiletries and medical supplies are easily obtainable in Bristol

    We have several photographic equipment shops in central bristol so shouldnt be any problems obtaining supplies.

    There are some areas on the edge of Bristol where you can pitch the odd tent or two and several camping shops in Bristol for equipment/supplies.

    A translator.

  • Small Backpack

    Street wear

    Just make sure you bring your medication. In the UK you cannot get prescribed drugs without a prescription. You can get alteratives from the Chemist ie: Boots . However there is some medication you can get almost anywhere, just keep your eyes peeled.

    If you bring a Camera, make it a small one that you can stick in your pocket. You don't want to stick out like a tourist and 'Lose' it.

    In winter, it goes without saying, dress warm.
    I have found the summer to be quite hot, but wet. A packable raincoat is a good idea.
