Accessible Climbing
MakingEverybodyStrong is the mantra at Depot Climbing Pudsey, and to us, that means everybody!
Accessible climbing options for individuals with complex needs, disabilities, or neurodivergence are integral to our mission to support every climber who uses our centre, regardless of background or ability, in enjoying the positive impact that climbing has on their lives.
We know from our own experience that climbing is a long-term, lifelong influence, and it can provide independence and confidence to those who participate, as well as open up a whole new community with a sense of belonging in safe spaces.
We work with Access Sport to bring more inclusive climbing sessions to the Leeds and Bradford area.
Below are details of spaces and sessions that we provide to make climbing inclusive for everybody.
Access Sport Inclusive Club Network Accessibility StatementSensory-Friendly Hours
We’re aware that a lot is going on inside a climbing centre, from busy periods of footfall to loud music and drills filling the space.
That’s why we’ve looked at when we can point to some less stimulating hours for those who prefer a quieter visit to enjoy climbing without all of the hullabaloo that can often go with it.
Between 6 pm and 9 pm, every Saturday, we will ensure that there is no drill work taking place within the centre (if necessary, we will signpost) and either turn the music down or off, so that you can enjoy a quieter time while you climb.
