We’re delighted to announce the official opening of our fully refurbished Climbing and Abseiling Tower here at Thorrington Scout Camp.

Over recent months, a dedicated team of volunteers has worked tirelessly to bring the tower back to life. The refurbishment has included the complete renewal of all wooden boarding, the installation of new climbing holds, and the purchase of updated climbing and safety equipment. The result is a high-quality, safe and engaging facility ready to support young people in developing their skills, confidence and sense of adventure.

This project has been made possible thanks to the commitment and generosity of our volunteers, alongside a £1500 grant from the Steven Eagell Toyota Group. Their support has played a key role in enabling us to complete the work and reopen this much-loved activity.

The climbing and abseiling tower is now available for bookings:

– Climbing sessions: £40 per hour  

– Abseiling sessions: £40 per hour  

The tower offers an exciting opportunity for Scouts and other youth groups to challenge themselves, build resilience, and experience adventure in a safe and supportive environment.

To make a booking or find out more, please get in touch with the Thorrington Scout Camp team.

We look forward to welcoming you and supporting more young people to gain skills for life through adventure
