Peak Area Meeting: 29 April

Come to our next (virtual) gathering of Peak District climbers and walkers and get involved in the BMC.

The next Peak Area Meeting will be on Thursday 29 April 2021, starting at 7.00pm, and will be an online meeting held via Zoom, with registration for the meeting via Eventbrite.

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.

Guest speaker for the evening is Jesse Dufton
Blind rock climber Jesse Dufton will talk about what motivates him in climbing, how he came to think that leading the Old Man of Hoy without being able to see was a good idea and something to have a go at, and what he will set his sights on as we emerge from lockdown.

All are welcome.

See the BMC Local Areas site for more details about the meeting
