BMC South West Area
About the South West Area
Welcome to the South West stretching from the Wye Valley to Dorset to the tip of Cornwall.
Upcoming South West 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.

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.
