Hi, i would really like to get into caving/potholing but dont have a group and am by myself and would really appreciate any help or direction on where to start, i'm located in north kent?

Local groups are Kent Underground Research Group if you are more interested in local holes, or mines further afield, or Wealden Cave and Mine Society if you want to try limestone caving as well. We have a significant Kent membership, mainly from the west end of the county. You can apply online.
