Climbing Centre Summer NICAS Fast Track Courses

The nationally-recognised scheme allows people to gain certification with each level gained.

The climbing centre will be running NICAS courses each week throughout the summer holidays. NICAS provides a safe introduction to climbing for young people aged 7 years and up on artificial climbing structures (e.g. indoor climbing walls), and it’s also a great way to meet new friends and develop confidence and independence. The nationally-recognised scheme allows people to gain certification with each level gained.

Each course will be run over 4 days (Tuesday – Friday) from 10.30am – 3.30pm, and over the four days, young people will work towards Level 2/Foundation Climber of the scheme which focuses on developing the skills needed to fit equipment, tie knots, climb and belay - all with an emphasis on safety as well as fun.

Opportunities to progress to further levels are available as NICAS are also run on evenings and weekends in term time.
