If you have done our Introductory course and caught the bug then this is the next step. Over the couse of this one day course we will show you anchor and rope systems that will allow you to head out and climb for yourself. This is not a “Learn to Lead” course but will get you setting up safe anchors and belays so you can top and bottom rope climbs in your own time.
