Kit List

With my passion to provide access for all, I strive to break down any potential barriers to the outdoors that might be holding people back. Clothing and Shoes are one of them - especially if you live in a city and you don’t usually need hiking boots! Don’t want to get your nice sneakers dirty and can’t afford to buy anything new at the moment? No problem! I may be able to provide clothing and shoes that you may need, so please get in touch and let me know your size so I can source them in plenty of time before the start of your session.

Please let me know upon booking what you will bring, and are not able to bring.

Indoors

  • Water & Snacks

  • Hair Bobble - for long haired people to keep up out of the way of the belay device

  • A Warm Layer

  • Any personal medication along with instructions

  • Shoes. (The best shoes for climbing are specific rock climbing shoes, if you have these then great! If not, non-squishy trainers are good - flat soled, that are comfortable and can be tied up well)

  • Please feel free to bring any climbing gear you have as I will encourage you to learn with the equipment you will be using in the future. I will check that they are suitable and safe for use prior to using them. This includes; harness, belay device and karabiners, lead ropes (if on leading course) and chalk.
