Book the programme.
Prepare participants and instructors.

Connect group bookings, individual participant information, permissions, equipment and travel plans. Give programme leads and instructors a clear schedule and the relevant preparation details.

Binoculars and plain field notebooks are prepared beside daypacks at a coastal field station.
The booking is the beginning

An organised group with individual preparation.

A school, college or group organiser books a dated residential or field programme. The lead contact may handle the booking and payments, while participant information and permissions need an appropriate responsible adult or organiser. Keep both the group context and the individual records.

What needs to work together

Knowing the group has paid does not mean every participant’s information is complete. Instructors need the current group list, equipment and relevant requirements before taking the programme into the field.

How it works

From the booking to a team ready to deliver.

01

Keep the organiser and participants connected

Manage the group booking with a lead contact, then maintain individual participant records. Present dates, accommodation, activities and equipment inclusions clearly.

02

Collect the required preparation

Use the programme’s information and document requirements, with the appropriate responsible adult or organiser involved where needed. Track missing details before the group travels.

03

Prepare instructors and hosts

Share the daily programme, group lists, relevant requirements, emergency contacts and logistics with the authorised team. Keep guest-facing information distinct from operational notes.

    Follow up on outstanding participant information and documents.

  • Before travel

    Share the kit list, meeting point and daily programme.

What the guest sees

A booking and preparation journey they can follow.

The organiser has a clear view of the programme and preparation steps, while participants receive the useful travel and experience information appropriate to the group.

What the operator sees

The booking and the work still to do.

Instructors and hosts receive the details they need for their responsibilities. The operator can review missing preparation and confirm the handover before departure.

Practical questions

A few details before you start.

Can we keep a group organiser as the main contact?

Yes. Maintain a lead organiser while keeping individual participant details for the programme.

Can the team access emergency information?

Share relevant information with authorised people according to their responsibilities, rather than placing it in a public guest itinerary.

How do you handle information needed for younger participants?

Configure the programme’s questions and documents around the appropriate responsible adult or organiser. Share relevant information only with authorised people who need it for the programme.

Can Marnie connect to our existing website?

Yes. Use a branded booking link, an embedded journey or an agreed custom integration. We map your booking model, configure the trips, payments, forms and messages, and help connect your website during free setup.
