New members
The club is fortunate enough to have several qualified members, who provide a full introduction to the club (for both complete beginners and the experienced). This covers the way the club works, the use of indoor wall facilities and any basic training that is needed. Further training or coaching can be arranged subsequently.
We like to meet for the first time if possible at our monthly pub meets (1st Wednesday of the month). See the club calender
We can then arrange either to meet at an indoor wall or for a full induction (if required, £20).
Children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Please contact Simon Clark to arrange for a club introduction, or for further information.
We are always happy to have a chat. So if you need more information, contact either the club chairman, Marion Leister or club secretary, Gavin Phillips
For all other matters contact the club secretary, Gavin Phillips

Membership fees and benefits
Club subscriptions are £30.00 in the first year, subsequent fees are £15.00 per annum, this includes your BMC club membership (this can subsequently be upgraded to full BMC membership if required).
We are affiliated to the BMC so CMC members receive personal liability insurance, plus gear discounts in a range of outdoor stores.
We also meet every Wednesday night, at either a local climbing wall or a local pub. Where we are meeting can be found on the club calender on our meets page.These are great social events where you can get to know everyone and hone your skills for the great outdoors!
We also facilitate training within the club; sessions include mountain first aid, navigation and map reading, winter skills, rock climbing skills and safety.
There is also a wealth of information within our club that you can learn from.
