Everyone should want to come back

At the event

• Go at the pace of the group. Nobody gets left behind and nobody is rushed.
• Follow the host's instructions on the route, at crossings, at the venue and near livestock.
• Do the start and end check-ins. If you leave early, tell the host before you go.
• Bring the kit on the event's kit list. The host may turn away anyone who is not equipped for the day.
• No alcohol before or during an activity. A drink afterwards is fine.

With each other

• Be friendly to everyone, including people you would not usually talk to.
• No harassment of any kind, at the event, in the event chat or afterwards. No unwanted attention, comments about bodies or pressure to meet one to one.
• Mirth is not a dating service. Do not use events to approach people romantically.
• Ask before taking or sharing photos of other members. Never share someone's phone number or details outside the event.
• Keep event chats for the event: plans, lifts, kit and photos. No selling and no politics.

With places and the countryside

• Follow the local countryside code: leave gates as you find them, keep to paths, take litter home.
• Be courteous to venue staff and to people who live and work along the route.
