Caving Supplies have been suppliers of fine caving equipment to cavers and rope access technicians in the UK and worldwide since 1972.
A last visit to cave supplies today and a goodbye to Phil. A few bits left if you are passing. Picked up a few things, including a signed copy of ”Caves of Mendip” (1970) well one author Once this shop has gone not many caving gear shops will be left
A few years ago when my old helmet gave up, I went through a lot of helmets Petzl, EDELRID etc (now all given away). I could not get on with any of them. In the end, I tried a cheap SIMOND helmet from Decathlon, it is great. :-)
