New workshops for spring/summer 2025
We’re delighted to launch our spring/summer 2025 workshop calendar
As well as the usual new-to-SRT and SRT refreshers for those who are rusty or keen to advance from the basics, we’re pleased to include some geology-focused workshops lead by the two Johns... John Helm and John Cordingley... plus a few more of our very sought-after 2:1 intensive workshops for rigging and rescue, and a new pull-through workshop using the recently re-anchored Swinsto Hole.
There's also another date for our popular new-to-caving session (23rd August) to provide an opportunity for anyone considering caving as a hobby to try it out as part of a friendly and educational day.
These were advertised to our mailing list yesterday (who always get one-day head-start) and some of the dates have already sold out!!! This will go out on Facebook and other social media tomorrow, so UKCaving users, this is a chance to snap up spaces.

These workshops are subsidised, partly through our professional instructors providing a substantial discount over their usual rates, and partly through CNCC subsidy (with the money for that coming from BCA). Thank you BCA for helping us to keep these as affordable as possible.
In browsing the online training catalogue you might also see several events for the Speleo Sisters - a caving group for women and gender diverse cavers. If wanting to attend any of their sessions please contact the group directly (they are active on Facebook). This is a good reminder that anyone is welcome to request a CNCC workshop specifically for your group/club. Please contact our Training Officer to discuss.
