About Us

Affordable, welcoming climbing for every student—with no membership fee, Chimera student discounts, and supportive sessions at your pace.

Climbing Society exists to make climbing accessible to every student by keeping costs low and fostering a warm, supportive community. As the university’s only climbing sports society, we offer student-only discounts through our partner, Chimera Climbing Centre, and run regular sessions with optional mentoring—no pressure, no rankings, just encouragement. We’re fun, inclusive, and flexible: join group meet-ups when you like or climb solo at your own pace. Every student is welcome to get involved, discover the joy of climbing, and boost their health and wellbeing. Founded in 2025, we’re here to help you experience the best of the climbing community—one send at a time.
