Climber Registration and Validation
On your first visit to the Ridge, you will need to complete a registration form to declare that you are a competent climber. It is advisable to obtain a 'SwindonCard' which will be programmed to recognise that you are a competent climber.
If you do not have a 'SwindonCard' you will still need to complete a registration form and will be charged an additional day membership rate every time you visit the centre to climb.
From time to time the Link Centre facilities may be closed due to events / competitions or maintenance, For more information please click here
