Charters are member-run, mutual assistance groups operating within the framework of the UKSN. Originally conceived to provide aid to members during emergencies, Charters have evolved to serve a broader purpose within the UKSN community. Today, they facilitate a wide range of local activities, events, and training sessions aimed at promoting outdoor skills, emergency preparedness, and community resilience.

At their core, Charters function as local hubs where like-minded individuals come together to share knowledge, participate in group activities, and build connections with fellow members. Each Charter operates under the guidance of UKSN, ensuring alignment with the network's values and principles.

Charters offer a platform for members to engage in various outdoor pursuits, ranging from camping trips and survival skills workshops to community service initiatives and emergency response training. By fostering a sense of camaraderie and collective responsibility, Charters empower members to develop essential skills, build resilience, and contribute to the well-being of their communities.

Whether you're passionate about outdoor adventures, eager to learn new skills, or simply seeking a supportive community of like-minded individuals, joining a UKSN Charter provides a valuable opportunity to connect, grow, and thrive.

As an organisation deeply rooted in outdoor exploration and preparedness, UKSN places a high value on fostering positive relationships with landowners. We understand the importance of earning and maintaining trust when it comes to utilising outdoor spaces for our activities and events.
