Really think the NICAS scheme is great for child. Please let's try and keep the cost down. So the boys and girls from the inner citys who want to climb and get there lee levels in NICAS. Like most things log books has a costing, just let's hope there funding for low income familys, so this great sport does not become just for the middle classes.

I work with young boys and girls who love climbing, and its keeping them on the straight and narrow.
Well down NICAS for your great work and let hope it will keep involving all of the community's. Around The uk.
