<h2 id="permission">Permission</h2>
<p>You have to be <em>individually</em> invited to come on the
CUCC (Cambridge University Caving Club) Expo. You must not just turn up
and assume that you can join in. This is important as our relationship
with the local caving club - whose permission we have to apply for every year -
depends on this. Get in touch with CUCC <a href="https://www.srcf.ucam.org/caving/wiki/Main_Page">here</a>.
<p>Your permission to attend must be confirmed in writing by the expedition leader before the expo starts.
<p>We have to know when you are arriving and when you are leaving
so that we can ensure we don't have too many people at any one time for
(a) the food we buy in advance, (b) the transport up and down the mountain and (c) bed space at base and our bivvy camps.
<h2 id="insurance">Insurance</h2>
<p>A <b><font style="color:red">very strong suggestion</font></b> for expoers is that everyone gets insurance in case of a rescue; this can be ruinously expensive
(running to millions of euros for multi-day rescues!) and so you <b><font style="color:red">almost certainly need to get cover</font></b> for this.

<p>Cost of VfH&Ouml; membership is &euro;30. There are details of how to do the bank transfer on their website
but generally Robert turns up at the dinner and cash is handed over. But do not let this informality mislead you: a renewal fee may be due every year thereafter and the expo may be responsible. This is why you need to understand the implications of using this mechanism to get insurance and get agreement from the expedition.
