BMC Self Rescue Course and an SPA Refresher

It was a cool weekend of getting in and out of trouble on the rocks with a bunch of great folk on the BMC's sea cliff self rescue course. We covered all sorts of issues that might arise when trad climbing on serious sea cliffs, from minor problems to full blown emergencies. Well done to all on the course for getting your heads round mind bending problems and coming through wish solutions! Thanks also to Alun Richardson who helped out working on the course.

Today I was out with James and Una. James is coming up to his SPA assessment and wanted a day's refresher to put him through his paces to prepare him for the assessment. Lots of good skills covered and an opportunity to go through what to expect from an assessment.

If you are thinking about doing your SPA assessment or just want to learn rescue skills to keep yourself and others safe in committing climbing situations than get in touch.
