Calling all summer expeditions with a healthy student or younger caver membership.
Get your free rope here!
On a number of occasions UKC have offered summer expeditions SRT rope in exchange for writing about their trips on this forum. We are delighted to be doing this again in 2026. On offer is 200m of 9.6mm SRT rope - per successful expedition entry.
So how do you get hold of this rope? Well... the more coverage your expedition gets the better it is for all your sponsors... and cavers like to hear your expedition stories..... so you're going to have to write about your expedition on ukcaving. What does that mean? To apply you will have to post on the 'expeditions' board of the forum giving some history, details, hopes and objectives of your trip. Those who have applied before are very welcome to apply again. If you kept us all well informed before then you are likely to be successful again.
Closing date is 10pm Monday 18th May. When we will announce the successful expeditions. As part of the deal you give a commitment to write about the trip on that same thread. This must include as a minimum; a post before departure, posts from the field and a good report upon your return. Make it positive and fun and that will help with recruitment and sponsors next year.
The rope is Fides III 9.6mm SRT purchased through SpanSet UK. This is a UKcaving sponsored initiative but we are very grateful to SpanSet for offering a generous discount and supporting many other caving projects.
