BeWell Bouldering Group

Free BeWell@StepOne Peer Support Group

This in-person group provides a supportive environment to enjoy the physical and mental benefits of climbing together.

About this peer support group

Bouldering is a fantastic way to boost your wellbeing, helping you get active, build confidence, and feel more connected to yourself and others. Whether you’re climbing for the first time or looking for a new way to support your mental health, our BeWell Bouldering Group offers a fun and welcoming space to explore something new.

You’ll start with a free coaching session in Week 1, followed by weekly social climbs, free refreshments, and bimonthly wellbeing workshops designed to help you feel stronger, both on and off the wall.

No experience is needed, just bring your enthusiasm and a sense of adventure! All equipment is provided by The Climbing Hangar.

This session is open to everyone in Devon over the age of 18. We also have funding available to contribute towards travel expenses. If transport costs are a barrier, please speak to us about your travel plans before attending so we can discuss how this support scheme may help.
