Above is the official list of what is needed but we have also been caught out on our camping trips as we did not having a tin opener, so now we tend to buy the tins with ring pulls on them! We have also forgot essential items like toilet paper or wipes ( for various uses!) and also rubbish bags.
Maps and a compass might seem a little out of date but we have been stuck many a time with either flat phone batteries or literally no signal for the satnav map. That is very stressful!
