The tour will include inside and outside locations\, so come prepared for both. \nThe building is fully accessible for wheelchair users. We have baby changing facilities and a cafe serving hot food\, snacks and sweet treats. \nTours will run every half hour from 2pm until 5pm\nFree but booking required via – https://www.theclimbingacademy.com/tca-life/arc-tours/  \nHERITAGE OPEN DAYS\nEvery September thousands of volunteers across England organise events to celebrate our fantastic history and culture.

You can boulder from any age and over 70s climb for free at all TCA centres. The centre is fully accessible with free on-site parking for disabled customers. The sport\, which featured in the recent summer Olympics for the first time\, has proven benefits to both physical and mental health. Providing active movement\, from energetic overhangs at height to balanced slab traverses only centimetres off a mat. It helps participants to improve confidence and focus. \nThe Climbing Academy \nTCA opened its first centre in Bristol in 2008. The Arc is TCA’s 3rd centre in the south west of England and 5th centre in total\, with 2 in Glasgow. \nChippenham Borough Lands Charity \nChippenham Borough Lands Charity is a grant giving organisation that supports local residents in welfare\, education\, arts and community projects.
