Freshers Week September 22 – 28th Freshers week went great! So many people showing an interest in what we do. Collected over 400 emails!
First Climb October 1st Over 50 boys and girls came to come try climbing on our very first Wednesday Climb!
Climbing at Mile End Climbing Wall! Every Wednesday from 15:30 and Sunday from 14:30 We currently have 91 members!! Smashing last years 44 and is still going up! The BEST thing about our society is how friendly and warm welcoming everyone is. Those that come and join us not only get hooked by the climbing but after only a short while find themselves as part of “the family” :D. Because of this we have 20-‐30+ members joining us every Wednesday and Sunday.
Socializing after climbing is a regular thing with The Victoria Pub just across the road from the climbing wall.
