For those of you who have been to Convention many times, you will be a dab hand at knowing what to bring. 

If this is your first year; here is a list of things you may find helpful. 

  • A few pairs of trousers and shorts
  • A few T-shirts 
  • Long sleeve tops (summer can be chilly in Cumbria)
  • Underwear
  • Comfortable shoes and a spare (you may be in them all day and they may get wet)
  • Walking boots and socks (if you want to get out on the hills)
  • Swimming costume and flip flops (if you want to head to the lake) 
  • Scarf
  • Sunglasses 
  • Towel x 2 
  • Toiletries (Toothbrush, toothpaste, shower gel, shampoo, deodorant)
  • Contact lenses & fluid 
  • Bible, notebook, pen
  • Charger for phone
  • Water bottle
  • Reusable hot drink cup
  • Torch 
  • Umbrella
  • Some people even bring paddleboards for their down time – whatever floats your boat!

The basic rule – the Lake District is known for being a bit wet, however we could also have glorious sunshine. Prepare for both!
