The RCDI is the award from Mountain Training for teaching and developing people towards being lead climbers on single pitch trad or sport climbs. We are the RCDI training and assessment course providers in South Wales. If you’re looking for an RCDI training course or an RCDI assessment course – it would be great to have you along! We have the perfect Trad Climbing of Pembrokeshire and the excellent Sport Climbing on the Gower at our disposal!
Who wouldn’t want to teach people to lead climb professionally? It’s one of our favourite days at work, taking us to amazing places with ace people, passing on the knowledge and skills to help people to stay safe on the crags out there. If this sounds like something you’d like to know more about – get in touch!
