After Expo Training weekend it was by Mark D/ Dour and Serena that a first Aid/Comfort + another Rescue Bag should be prepared. Serena will source the materials and Dour will pack them in Austria.

First Aid and Comfort

Survival bag
Bothy bag (to buy)?
Candle
Lighter (piezo-electric type since these work even when wet)
Matches + Flint
Carry Mat
folded sheet of tin foil to build wind shields for candles 10m of thin line (eg. 2mm diving line) is useful for shelter building, if the place is drippy you can use it with a survival bag to improvise a "tent"


First Aid Kit (Dour to liaise with Olly M)

Rescue bag (Big Bertha)

This is now prepared for packing on Expo. It's in the tackle store in a yellow biohazard bag.

Stop
GriGri
92m of 11mm
2 slings
1 short rope to cut
6 Krabs
Big Rescue Pulley
2 hand jammers


Mark D added: One item which makes rigging hauling systems a lot easier is a rigging plate. http://www.berniescafe.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=986 We didn't use one on the practice so I wouldn't necessarily buy one now. But if there is any cash left over post-expo, it might be an idea to buy one so that at the next training we can teach people how to use it.
