Rockfax Donations to Bolt Funds

We are very happy to have just made some significant donations to bolting efforts in various areas that we cover. This includes financial contributions to the bolt funds of South Wales, Dorset, Cumbria and North Wales. We also gave some cash to bolting efforts in El Chorro. You can make donations yourself to most of these areas using the links on UKBoltFund.org

In the Yorkshire area we have bought a new drill for the local bolters there. In the Peak area we have purchased an entire bolting kit and also got involved with the bolting efforts in particular at Horseshoe Quarry.

In Sicily a new climbing shop/bunk house has been set up call SV Climbing. Marco, who runs the place, got in touch to ask about selling the guide. We came up with an arrangement where we send him copies for him to sell with all profits including ours being donated directly to the bolting efforts.

The money we raise for bolting and access come from sales of printed books plus usage of the areas within Rockfax Digital. If you are in an area covered by Rockfax and wish to find out how we can help in your area then please contact us.
