14-17 Year Old Induction/Assessment sessions

 

14-17 year olds may become junior members of Eden Rock provided that they can demonstrate safe, responsible use of the bouldering wall. Youngsters in this age range may climb unsupervised at the centre on completion of either a competency assessment or a junior induction. Any youngster seeking to become a junior member must be brought to their assessment/induction session by a parent or guardian.

​

Assessment/Induction sessions last approximately 60 minutes and cost £25, or £20 per person for more than one youngster.

​

Note - these sessions are an assessment of competence and responsible use of the facilities. Should a youngster not meet the required standard for safety the instructor will provide guidance on next steps. Please also note that youngsters who gain junior memberships cannot supervise junior climbers or novices, and will have their unsupervised access revoked if they fail at any point to adhere to the conditions of use.
