    Bit of a strange request but,

    Is there anywhere in Ireland that does 4x4 recovery courses and doesn't require you to have your own 4x4.

    We are planning a trip to Botswana, and although we have done the tamer areas before we want to get out into the really wild places. I would just feel better with some proper training on using a hi-lift jack and the likes.

    Thanks

    Jonathan Crozier of https://www.crozier4x4.com used to do this sort of thing, but I have no idea if he still does.

    Alternatively a Google search throws up some possibilities:

    I've done my advanced 4WD training with work a few years ago and again recently in the last month. It is definitely worth having the knowledge if you are going remote and how easy it is to perform an unsafe recovery and the consequences of it going wrong.

    I did get an A5 booklet from the course outlining everything they teach. I'm not sure where it is. I'm at work at the minute until Thursday. If I have it at home I can scan in the pages and flick them on to you. Send me a PM Wednesday or Thursday to remind me and I'll have a look for it.
