ABOUT
MISSION STATEMENT
We aim to offer the local community an indoor climbing facility where they can engage in the healthy recreational activity of climbing and, through encouragement and promotion by the club, learn safe and good practice in all aspects of climbing. We will do this by providing facilities, training and education to the residents of South Norfolk and surrounding areas, junior and adult, regardless of ability.
OUR HISTORY
In 2015, South Norfolk Council made the difficult decision to remove their outdated climbing wall as part of the Wymondham Leisure Centre refurbishment plans. This left a void in climbing facilities in South Norfolk and in response a group of passionate climbers, parents of children who climb and instructors formed the South Norfolk Climbing Club, an organisation committed to the belief that the community need continued access to a local indoor climbing wall.
We have worked closely with South Norfolk Council to find a solution to the lack of climbing facilities in the area. The outcome has been an exciting project to create a new facility through the installation of a modern, purpose-built climbing wall in 2016. It is the only one of its kind in South Norfolk available to the whole community.
COMMITMENT TO
OUR COMMUNITY
South Norfolk Climbing Club is a charity run by the community, for the community, and we welcome support from anyone who is interested in helping us offer climbing residents of South Norfolk at a state-of-the-art indoor climbing wall. Our club is run by volunteers who include climbers, instructors, parents and young people. Get in touch if you would like to know more about our plans for the club and how you can get involved.
South Norfolk Council awarded our project a substantial grant and we were successful in our application for further funding from Sport England who awarded an Inspired Facilities grant in 2015. Together, this enabled the creation of the Morley Wall, which is managed by South Norfolk Climbing Club.
