Climbing Changes Lives
Bring your group together for a climbing experience that’s active, inclusive, and inspiring. From school classes to workplace teams, climbing is a powerful way to build confidence, trust, and focus – and it’s great fun too.
At The Climbing Academy, we offer instructor-led group sessions for all ages and abilities across our centres in Glasgow, Bristol, and Chippenham. Our supportive team will help you plan the perfect visit, whether it’s a one-off adventure or part of an ongoing programme.

What We Offer
Sessions are tailored to your group’s goals and abilities, ensuring everyone – even first-timers – feels supported and challenged at the right level.
- One-off taster sessions – a fun, active day that brings people together
- Short courses – structured sessions that develop skills and confidence over time
- Ongoing programmes – regular climbing sessions that support wellbeing, focus and teamwork
Climbing fosters problem-solving, communication and mutual support. It’s an activity that allows people to step outside their comfort zone and leave with a shared sense of achievement.
