The Expansion
Aaaas you know, we are expanding into our next door unit to grow grow grow the gym.
It’s a tough time being an indie in London at the moment. Everyone is a bit squeezed for cash, climbing isn’t cool anymore, and we’re competing against everyone (not least chain gyms with cash and multiple site openings a year).
As of 18th Oct, we have been on-site for 66 days. Since then, we have lost count…
Lots of folks have volunteered their time, for that we are incredibly grateful.
Not sure if the comms has got more people visiting the gym tbh.
However, lots of people have asked about supporting the gym through a crowdfunder, so here it is.
We are doing this expansion to increase our beginner climbing, hard climbing, board, and gym offerings. This will allow us to be more flexible with the space, and offer a better overall product.
Obviously, this has gone longer, and got more expensive than we wanted it to. But we really hope to have it open by the New Year. We have reinvested into the gym to be able to do the expansion, but there is only so much we can put in. Any contribution to the crowd-funder will support the gym with its cash flow as we go through this period.
Knock Down The Wall Raffle
£2 per entry to join Chi and Conor on the demolition of our joining wall
You can buy as many of these as you like
We will let you know when the wall demolition is happening a few days in advance (we will try and be flexible, but the build schedule will take precedence over your availability sry)
You will don steels and PPE and help knock it down
We will probably need a bunch of help that day so will probably also have other volunteers, but you already know this is a fun way to contribute to the gym so no one will take it too seriously, right?
FAQ’s
-
A multiple of £2. You can buy as many raffle tickets as you like.

It’ll happen when it happens, no promises. Got a lot to do next door, and things sort of need to be done in an order, so we will try and be flexi. But at the end of the day, job’s gotta be done doesn’t it.
-
We have put together a crowd-funder here with some other options to support the gym. Otherwise, you can always get in touch to volunteer your help on the build.
