Climbing health and safety

We ask that all climbers are aware of the BMC statement as follows:

"The BMC recognises that climbing, hill walking and mountaineering are activities with a danger of personal injury or death. Participants in these activities should be aware of and accept these risks and be responsible for their own actions and involvement".

To ensure Health and Safety is maintained our floorwalkers regularly patrol the climbing area, please take their advice and comments on board. If you compromise health and safety you may be asked to leave the facility.   

Holds can spin and break therefore we ask all climbers to indicate these to a member of staff to ensure any problems are immediately rectified.

Our conditions of use of the climbing wall may be downloaded from the right of this page.
