BMC Midlands Area
About the Midlands Area
Welcome to the Midlands area. We have four meetings a year and welcome all. We are "doing, not talking" kind of meeting. The meetings are an open forum style where everyone has a voice and we aim to debate the issues that concern you. It's also a good way to find out about crag clean ups, and hear about any re-bolting and access work taking place.
Upcoming Midlands Area meetings
Area Meetings are run by volunteers and provide an opportunity for you to discuss issues and influence decisions affecting climbers and walkers locally and nationally, and to meet like-minded people and enjoy a sociable night out (or 'in' on Zoom). Area Meetings also provide the platform for election to a range of volunteer roles within the BMC.

Midlands area volunteer vacancies
Would you like to get more involved in the work of the BMC? If you are interested in one of the above volunteer opportunities please come along to the relevant Area Meeting and speak with the current Chair or Secretary. If you are unable to attend please email volunteering@thebmc.co.uk and ask to be put in contact with your local area.
Area volunteers undertake vital roles in the democratic structure of the BMC and the work we do on behalf of members and the wider climbing, hill walking and mountaineering community. Each area holds an AGM, at which elections for a range of volunteer roles are held, and outside of these meetings, members can be co-opted into roles.
