Those who do not will be advised of their role during October, November at the latest. Accommodation - Service Leaders will generally be accommodated in either the Venturer sub-camp or Service Leader sub-camp, and dine in central dining facilities. Some Activity Leaders may camp at Woodhouse or Wellington Marina. Unless you have been specifically advised, you will be sleeping in tents which you need to bring yourself (more below). Shared single gender tents are an option if that suits you.

Bringing more of your gear in a container - Service Leaders and Venturers ALSO have access to a Loscam G5 Gpack container which they can load at Jamboree Packing Day at Cataract Scout Park on 10 November Service Leaders and Venturers can bring the equivalent of a second 90L Jamboree bag and load it in the Loscam G5. That might be a bag containing your tent and your stretcher for example. You'll drop that gear off (or have your home Troop drop that off for you) at Cataract Scout Park on Jamboree Packing Day. Please clearly mark these bags with your name and either your Service Leader or Junior Service Leader role. Caravans - Private caravans located in the caravan park need to be self-sufficient.
