Regular Wednesday evenings climbing outdoors. From the first Wednesday after the clocks change to British Summer Time, there are regular outdoor meets on Wednesday evenings. The choice of crag often depends on the weather, keep an eye on the social media, especially oread@groups.io and the Oread Mountaineering Club Facebook page to find out where we are meeting.
Regular Monday evenings climbing indoors. During the winter, after the last Wednesday outdoor meet in September, there is a regular meet at the Climbing Unit in Derby on Monday evenings at 7 p.m. This is a great opportunity to meet members of the club.
