Big Depot Climbing Centre, Sharston, Manchester – climbing from around 6pm

This is a drop-in session – feel free to come earlier or turn up later. Competent, experienced lead climbers are welcome on any club evening.

New to the club? Our newcomers’ night is on the first Monday of each month, and that’s the best time for your first visit. If you absolutely can’t make a first Monday, you’re still welcome to come on another Monday. Please register as a ‘prospective member’ via the ‘join KMC’ page first and let us know when you’re planning to come.

Please note, as a minimum, you must be signed off as 'competent' to belay at Big Depot by staff before you attend a meet. Most of our members lead climb, so being able to lead belay is a big help, though it isn’t strictly required. We may ask you to show a KMC member that you can belay safely when you join the meet.

Please be aware that KMC club members are not insured on club meets to act as instructors or to engage in formal tuition or competency courses for complete novices to roped climbing. If you are a ‘roped climbing’ novice, please check the Big Depot website for their introductory courses: https://www.depotclimbing.co.uk/big-depot-manchester/, or seek independent training from a registered provider.
