Crag care at Chudleigh

The BMC has created a £10,000 fund to support practical work for the care and maintenance of crags in England and Wales.

Half of this initial funding will go towards essential works at BMC owned and managed crags, including Horseshoe Quarry, Craig y Longridge, Bwlch y Moch. The other £5000 will go towards Area projects throughout England and Wales.

The aim is to fund improvement works and activities that directly benefit the crags, with the emphasis being on practical work. The Access & Conservation Trust will continue to fund policy related work, literature production and larger projects.
