At Rock and Rapid Adventures, we tailor activities to suit each group’s needs, whether you’re booking a one-off climbing lesson or a structured course running over several weeks or months. We can cater for GCSE and A Level syllabuses if desired, and can even add outdoor trips into your schedule in the summer months to supplement regular indoor sessions.
Our sessions are available for groups as small as two up to as many as ninety climbers. All sessions are fully supervised by qualified instructors, and we work on ratios that ensure every child has the encouragement and attention they need in a variety of activities from roped climbing and bouldering to abseiling, low ropes and team games.

Our instructors are trained in teaching a wide range of demographics, including students from alternative provisions schools, and individuals with disabilities.
Climbing is well-regulated!
At the centre, we hold an AALA license and are members of the Association of British Climbing Walls.
Of course, if you have your own instructors you’re welcome to bring them along to use our climbing facilities, instead of using our staff. (As you’d expect, they must hold all of the appropriate qualifications and insurance to do so.)

Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme
As a family of five who like to try new things, I can’t recommend this enough. The staff member who helped us was top class. Friendly, accommodating and keen. Although, we were all at different levels of experience, some of us complete notices at climbing – we all managed to spend an enjoyable couple of hours.
Really good day out and cater for all levels of ability. As complete beginners we were a bit nervous to begin with but soon got up to speed. Very good value for money.
To arrange a weekend that is a bit different and feels special is becoming harder to do so it was refreshing ti find somewhere that was happy to listen to our thoughts and ideas and let us run with them. Had a fantastic weekend that combined indoor climbing, raft building challenged and a monster design and build task to product a melon flinging catapult in a morning on a budget of £100. All in a really good time had by all with very relaxed and friendly staff. Would recommend for arranging those vents that are a bit more specialised.
I have been climbing here on and off for almost 4 years now. I keep coming back. This is by far one of the most friendly, helpful and safe climbing centres I have ever been to. The staff are constantly on guard for any mishaps and are very approachable with any and all concerns Especially talking through hypothetical situations and scenarios. Their knowledge is current and at the highest level. Definitely a place to go, and keep going.
I started climbing here about a year ago and love the atmosphere and people I meet. Ladies might, on a Monday which is run by Simmo has become a weekly must. (the coffee is pretty awesome too.) Great instruction is given on technique including safety) plus games are put together to improve climbing ability. I bring my nieces here and they love it. It’s exercise without feeling like you’re i a gym. I can’t recommend it enough!
We visited this whole on our holiday on a rainy day, my son enjoyed it so much he wanted to go back so we did. Twice! The staff are super friendly and very knowledgable. We will no doubt be back next year!
