Hi is there anyone in Essex who wants to get into climbing? Would like to meet up with people and start climbing. My local climbing clubs have a waiting list which is a shame. Although I'am on the waiting list god knows when a space becomes available.
Where in Essex are you? High Sports Basildon doesn't have a waiting list, afaik. Take their introduction sessions and then Monday nights are geared towards beginners, with instructors and a lot of helpful climbers
Have you tried at the Lock Climbing Centtre, Harlow ? I know Chelmsford club go there regularly but I think the climbing centre has its own club as well. Good luck
Get down to Basildon high sports, it is the most welcoming wall I have been to. You will find someone to climb with. Don't know why any club would have a waiting list.
Cause climbing clubs can be real cliquey or maybe just not that socially outgoing. Very welcoming at Basildon though. My advice is to be a club whore and go wherever and whenever possible.
Try Tiptree wall. Give me a shout if you do.
