This resource is brought out to your venue and erected ready for use.

Schools and youth groups at your site.

Why not combine our mobile climbing wall with team building exercises and archery to make an Outdoor Education Adventure Day? In this way your School can accommodate large numbers of participants in one day. Please call with your numbers and we can then design a programme for your day with costs.

Youth Outreach work. 

Can be used as part of a "Youth Out Reach" programme. Suitable for an evening activity as a focal point. Can be set up on any small area of grass, car park, etc. Evening sessions in the darker months the wall can be flood lit, making for a different atmosphere.
