Plan a hike or long walk with a safety checklist

Plan a hike or long walk safely.

Distance/time band: [details]
Where (type): [hills, coast, countryside]
Group: [solo / others / dog]
Season: [month]
Experience: [details]

Ask me up to 3 short questions first if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers.

Then:
1. Planning checks (map, weather, daylight, tell someone).
2. Kit list.
3. Abort rules.
4. Emergency notes (999 / mountain rescue context in general UK terms).
5. Fitness/GP reminder if I have conditions.

Only use what I've told you, leave blanks for anything I haven't given, and don't invent diagnoses, doses, calorie targets or treatment plans. This is help with preparation, planning and wording, not medical, diet or treatment advice; check the NHS website, speak to a pharmacist, or contact NHS 111; call 999 if it feels like an emergency.
