The next Peak Area Meeting is on Wednesday 15 April 2015, starting at 7.30pm, at The Maynard, Main Road, Grindleford, Derbyshire, S32 2HE.

Come along to our gathering of Peak climbers and walkers, to discuss the latest issues and get involved in the work of the BMC.

The area meetings are run by volunteers and are your chance to join in with debate and influence decisions about what happens in the Peak and rest of the country.
