Under 18 Climbing

Can I bring my children climbing?

Under 18s are welcome but we do have strict guidelines.
Please be sure to read everything
here before arriving at the centre.

How many Under 18s can I bring to supervise?

Experienced adults can take up to 2 under 18s climbing upon completion of the Adult Supervisor Assessment (Details at the bottom left).

Can I bring a friend who is a competent climber to supervise my child?   

Yes.  If you do not meet the requirements, a friend who is signed off as a Supervisor can.
(See link above for details)

My child has climbed for X years, do I need to supervise them?  

Under 18s must be supervised at all times.
Experienced 14-17 year-olds can take the
Unsupervised Climbing Assessment.
This does not guarantee they will be able to climb unsupervised if they fail to complete the assessment.

 My child is signed off to climb unsupervised, can he supervise someone younger?  

Under 18s are not permitted to become Supervisors. The younger child would need adult supervision.
