Being south coast based, typically indoor climbing courses are run in Southampton or Guildford; outdoor climbing courses in Swanage or Portland; navigation courses in the Dorset AONB, South Downs or Brecon Beacons and winter skills courses in the Scottish Highlands. However, courses are often hosted all over the UK. Upcoming dates and locations will be published on the website. Please get in touch if you can't see the location you have in mind.

All instruction approved within the scope of my qualification and any specialist/technical equipment required for the day (such as maps and compasses for a navigation course or ropes and harnesses for a climbing course). If you have your own technical equipment you wish to bring along then please do so, in fact for skills courses its better for you to become familiar with your own kit. Please see the terms and conditions regarding equipment.

Personal equipment, clothing, footwear, food, accommodation and/or transport are not included unless otherwise agreed. Please see the terms and conditions regarding this. If you have any difficulties, please get in touch - I will gladly assist or advise where possible. 

All outdoor activities involve inherent hazards that cannot be wholly mitigated without devaluing the activity or the reason for doing it. I will make every effort to keep you safe but ultimately it is up to you to judge whether you feel the risks are tolerable or not. Please read the British Mountaineering Council Participation Statement in the terms and conditions.

All individual participants must be 18 or older. Under 18s may partake but must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian who will be responsible for them at all times.

All activities provided are of a physical nature, therefore you will need to be comfortable walking up and down hills or supporting your body weight when climbing. You also need to be prepared to be out in all weather conditions. The exact level of fitness required will depend on what course or experience you have chosen, please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions regarding fitness expectations.
