BMC Campaign
return to current news articles
The BMC is launching a campaign to improve safety at climbing walls and bridge the gap between indoor climbing
and the less predictable environment climbers face outdoors. Tens of thousands of people are taking up climbing
on indoor walls. Climbing outside is very different and more dangerous.
Last year there were a number of deaths
and serious accidents, so the BMC is using the opportunity provided by additional funding to remind people of the
dangers, encourage them to adopt good practice and techniques, and also provide them with quality information produced
by training professionals. The messages will be conveyed through information panels at selected walls, and a new
booklet and poster.
