Regional camp question

I will be attending my first camp next month and I was wondering whether irons and ironing boards will be provided? I’ve been instructed to bring both my dark blues and wedgewoods but I feel like they will get very creased over the seven days I will be staying at the camp. Is it a good idea to bring a mini iron?

Thank you :slight_smile:

In my experience, irons and boards are usually provided.

however, these do tend to come out of “Wing stores” and can be of questionable quality/risk damaging uniform.

It has been a while since i last went on a “blue camp” so shall leave others to offer their views

On my first blue camp I went on the RAF stn provided irons and boards however they were not great and were shared 1 to about 7 people. My roommate had brought a mini iron and board and we were able to do all of our ironing using that so from then on I brought my own mini iron and table top board to all camps :joy: definitely not necessary but makes life easier

Usually there will be some to use but they are shared amongst alot of cadets. If you can best to get a mini iron board and iron you can take to camps.
