Climb
The Life Centre’s climbing wall - brought to Plymouth by High Sports - is one of the biggest in Europe and the only dedicated facility of this kind south of Bristol.
Our students and staff can access this innovative climbing zone with its 16-metre wall, aerial assault course, bouldering and abseiling. Allocated climbing slots at a reduced rate are available to students and staff during term time, with qualified instructors on hand.
UPSU is at the wall twice a week bringing along kit that is available to use for free, plus throughout the year students can access free instruction and coaching.
University of Plymouth slots:
