Activities including field trips, outings & outdoor meetings

The Society organises several activities in addition to the annual Programme of Talks. These include field trips, usually linked to a talk and often guided by the speaker, and organising displays at exhibitions, for example those co-ordinated by Berwick Record Office (Bygone Borderlands). The Society has also hosted meetings for other local history societies in Northumberland. Society members have also helped others with their local history research

​For all outdoor activities please read the Risk Assessment beforehand - detailed at the base of this page.

Outdoor meetings are different and we hope they will be a way to keep our members in touch until a more usual format is possible.
Please support us.

Any queries to the secretary via the contacts page.
Outings Risk Assessment
In line with other organisations, GLHS must ensure that all who attend its outings are aware of any potential risks and hazards involved.
The most likely hazards/risks, and the recommended counter measures you should note and act on, are:
Hazards/risks 
Counter measures
Rough, uneven, steep, icy, wet or slippery ground. 
Wear appropriate stout footwear, and look where you walk.
Bad weather— cold, windy, wet –  or hot and sunny.
Wear appropriate outdoor clothing.
Cover up, wear a hat, apply sun cream.
Getting cold or tired, or overheated.
Tell the GLHS organiser.
Getting lost.
Keep with the group at all times.  Do not on ahead or off on your own.  Never leave the group without telling the GLHS outing organiser.
No GLHS outing will be exceptionally strenuous or the localities visited particularly hazardous. Typically, walking will be at a leisurely pace with frequent pauses to look at the surroundings and to be given information.
If a proposed outing poses a higher than normal risk or demands more physical effort than usual, you will be informed beforehand.
Take care at all times, and enjoy the outings!

Your Leader will keep an eye on/regulate social distancing as necessary
​Overall, please be mindful of other people

Thank You!
