Climbing Wall Services

 

Staff Training

If your establishment is lucky enough to have your own climbing wall, or access to a local facility we can train your staff to run safe and high quality sessions for your students.

​

Our courses are run in accordance with the guidelines issued by Mountain Training UK and lead to a Site Specific Statement of Competence, signed off by a Technical Advisor and recognised by most Local Authorities as appropriate evidence of competence. 

​

Technical Advice

We can support you in developing climbing activities for your establishment by working with you to produce Operating Procedures and Risk Assessments, advise on equipment and equipment checks, or provide a competent person, as recognised by the HSE, to carry out these checks for you.
