Over the next few weeks we will be highlighting some special offers that climbing businesses are offering UKClimbing.com readers. Also we have a series of gift idea articles from the climbing and outdoor shops that support UKClimbing.com.

First up - the BMC and their brand new online shop selling the latest climbing films, essential books, training DVDs and more. Alex Messenger, the BMC's little Santa Claus reports:

Get the best of Kendal in the BMC shop

Congratulations to the Kendal winners! Alastair Lee's hot new film 'Onsight' cleaned up at the Kendal Film Festival at the weekend, whilst Andy Kirkpatrick scooped the Boardman Tasker prize for mountain literature with his new book 'PsycoVertical'.

Also last week, the BMC launched their brand new online shop at www.bmcshop.co.uk, and to celebrate they've teamed up with UKC to offer an exclusive 'Best of Kendal Package' – perfect for Christmas presents and long winter nights.
