These are just some examples of ideas for aims. You and your team should create an aim that is personal and interesting to you – and suitable for your expedition area and mode of travel.
Teamwork
- Make a diary of the group's experiences and how you supported each other
- Create a training film for other groups about navigation and expedition skills
- As a team, create an expedition music playlist that represents your experiences
- As a team, identify skills you would like to improve and create a team diary showing how you are improving
Environment
- Photograph and identify different types of stones and rocks
- Sketch wildlife you see and do an exhibition at the end of your expedition
- Report on the accessibility of open spaces to wheelchair users and others with restricted mobility
- Prepare a route along a towpath and note the wildlife you see
History
- Discover sites tied to local myths and legends
- Take photographs of historic sites on your route and create a calendar
- Draw buildings of different periods along your route
- Produce an illustrated guide to a stretch of canal, focusing on its history
