If you want to find a Women’s Climbing Club at a climbing centre near to you. Here is a list of Independent Women’s Climbing Clubs in the UK, run by individual walls/ climbing organisations. Not got one near you? Contact us to find out how to set one up yourself.
This is a super exciting and successful women’s climbing community group based in Brighton that was founded in March 2008 by a woman with physical and mental health issues. She felt passionate about sharing the benefits that rock climbing had given her with other women. It’s still going strong and you can find out more about the Vertigirls community on the Vertigirls website.
