A really interesting article from Sport England -
Lisa O'Keefe, Sport England executive director for insight said ‚ÄúOur insights show that children with active parents ‚Äď particularly mothers ‚Äď are more likely to be active themselves,‚ÄĚ
Have you considered bringing your little one to a Tiny Academy Session, such a great way to introduce them to climbing, whilst meeting other parents and enjoying some time on the walls.
... Our sessions run on Tuesdays and Thursdays at The Newsroom, 11am - 12pm.

We found this really beautiful essay written by The Project Magazine on relationships and the significance of climbing walls. Many people have met their true match through climbing, be that a relationship or even just finding their new lifestyle! (There was even a proposal at a comp at TCA Newsroom one year... She said yes!) Have a read, it's a really well penned article and rather thought provoking.

We've been loving Adam Ondra's latest vlog series recently. Whilst he's climbed the hardest climbs all over, he's been getting into the swing of things with the new-school bouldering style. What do you think of the current comp style setting trend?
