International Women’s Day!
In line with this years theme for International Women’s Day
“Inspiring inclusion”
We would like to extend an open invitation to anybody new to help break down that very first barrier when exploring a new sport.
Free entry will be given to anyone who is new to Yonder at the event, so bring your friends, families and neighbours - neighbours cats if you wish. We want everybody to feel welcome and included in this years IWD event!
Let us celebrate together the strength, passion and support that women bring to the climbing community.
We will be joined this year by 3 incredible Women, paving the way in their own communities.
Solenne Piret
“Solenne Piret, born without her right forearm, is one of the strongest paraclimbers. With four world championship titles and boulder problems up to 7B to her name, she lives her life chasing dreams that she now knows she can turn into reality.”

Amira Patel
Founder of a hiking and adventure group for Muslim Women, ‘The Wanderlust Women’ - a vision that is centred around representation, inclusivity, and visibility for Muslim women in the great outdoors.
“We are here to stay; we are here to break barriers and stereotypes placed upon us; and we are here to change what others misconceive as the typical walker, hiker, and mountaineer.”
