Hi guys
8 months ago we moved to Sierra Leone with the aim of setting up the first proper climbing facility in the country (and indeed the whole of West Africa!)
Our prototype wall has been really successful and has captured the imagination of the local community here (We even have one local guy, Matthew, who is climbing about V6 after 10 sessions!!)
Over the next few months, our little climbing wall is going to be moving and expanding to a kids friendly venue. The idea is that we will be able to offer climbing sessions to classes of local primary school children in Freetown (as well as to adults)
What we really need for this to happen is some more climbing shoes - any sizes, but particularly the kids ones.
If anyone has any old shoes that they wouldn't mind donating, we'd be happy to pay the postage to Sheffield where we can collect them in August.
Also useful would be chalkbags and climbing holds if anyone has any spares.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.
