I run. MIAS courses.
happy to advise on any questions.
The major benefit of MIAS, its accepted internationally, you can call and speak to Martin at any point, rather than the faceless BC.
and the courses i run are a load of fun lol.
one additional, as far as i am aware, BC dont focus as much on navigation, MIAS consider that an essential skill. map/compass.
insurance is easy afterwards, £50 a yr.
and at l3 you can get hope at 40% discount!
winner.
any questions please just ask,
i also run first aid courses. for anyone needing one.
