Other Notes: 

New to Night Orienteering? 
You need to bring a decent head torch (and maybe a spare) and make sure to dress appropriately for the weather.
The first series of events, up to Christmas tend to be on easier areas so are suitable for those trying night orienteering for the first time.
Younger and/or inexperienced orienteers should be accompanied.
