Our ever-popular Kids Clubs run each term and are a fantasic way of getting kids aged 5-16 years climbing our walls under the supervision of our Instructors!

For more information on the clubs at each of our centres, please see here.

After requests from a number of parents, we would like to keep you as up to date as possible on the number of spaces we have left on our clubs.  So, if you’re thinking of booking we’ll help to make sure you don’t miss out. 

Don’t forget that you need to complete a new Parental Consent Form for the new term!  You should have been sent one when you booked but if not, you can download one here and bring it with you on the first day of term.

That’s an attention grabbing title if ever I saw one…

Craggy2 is hosting Round 3 of the London University Bouldering Event on Saturday 28th of January 2012.

We will be closed for public climbing between the hours 0f 10:00 – 15:15 and will look to open to the public asap after that. If you fancy coming down to spectate everyone is welcome to cheer on the competitors.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Craggy Island is known as the friendly wall. Why? Well, mostly because we always intended to have a wall with an open environment, where people could climb together in a welcoming space, and also to have friendly and motivated staff to help our customers get the best out of their climbing experience. Climbing is FUN!

As part of this culture that we’ve nursed along, various social groups began springing up…  Some were a group of friends already, work colleagues with a common interest or indivduals that met up during their regular sessions.  We really enjoyed watching all these people come together which is why, in 2005, we arranged the first Ladies Session headed up by our instructor Claire Walker.  Due to Claire’s never-ending enthusiasm for the sport and engaging with people we soon went on to create the Social Session (mostly to keep the boys quiet who at that time were missing out on all the fun!). 

She was then joined by Andy Fairgrieve – another of our instructors with an inexhaustible interest in all things vertical (and he’s been climbing forevvvver which makes for some interesting tales).

Between them, and with Claire’s dedication to the Ladies Session also, both sessions have gone from strength to strength!  Even meaning that we have now introduced a new Social Session on Friday Mornings and Evenings which is hosted by another fab instructor of ours, Joe Byfield. 

The secret…?  Getting people talking and introducing climbers to other climbers – it never fails!  Oh, and a free drink!!

The main aim of the sessions had always been to enable new climbers to come along and enjoy their first few climbs under the gentle supervision of our instructors.  However, people keep coming back - enjoying the banter and the opportunity to pick up hints and tips off our instructors on top of making new friends to climb with!

If this sounds like your kind of fun, why not come along?:

Ladies Session (no boys allowed!):

Monday mornings 10:00-12:00

Monday evenings 19:00-21:00

Social Session:

Wednesday evenings 19:00-21:00

New!  Friday mornings 10:00-12:00 

Friday evenings 19:00-21:00

All sessions cost £10 per person with a free hot or cold drink from the cafe at the end of the session.
