"On Friday the 23rd of January our new shop at 44 Tower Bridge Road was burgled. Thieves have stolen all of our camming devices, locking carabiners, ice axes, a large amount of our work, rescue and rigging gear and more. We are still assessing the loss, but an early estimate puts it at over £25,000. Until we can log exactly what we do and don't still have we have closed the shop and suspended internet sales. We hope that we'll be able to resume normal trading soon, so please bear with us. If you live in the London area and see or hear about anyone trying to sell climbing equipment that is at all suspicious, please either get in touch with us or report it directly to the Police. We will update our site and also our social media with any developments.
We have had fantastic messages of support from many people which just goes to show what a great bunch the climbing community is.
Thanks Alex, Catherine, Megan, Jon
