AGM 2021 (Never again let us have to do this online!)
May 21, 2021 - May 23, 2021
*Here are the amended details for the AGM, with new dates.*
See email sent on Friday 26/2/21 before booking campsite. Please let Jim know that you are booking so that he can add you to our risk assessment.
After last year’s AGM, we are all super excited! Plans this year include camping so we have posted the dates a little later… for those who like the comfort. Camp in the heart of the Peak District at Edale, climb more Grit than you know what to do with then sit at a camp site and wave at each other… discussing the merits of Amazon toilet tents…
Arrive Friday 21.05.21 at the campsite and plans to climb somewhere on Stanage on the Saturday… Spend an hour in the cold agreeing to anything so we can go in, then… Plans to be confirmed Saturday for Sunday, so get an opinion! Head home Sunday. With current rules, it is worth planning early so all members can make plans and seek to join. Hopefully, camping will make social distancing easier if required.
As ever, an agenda will be posted by the Vice President, President and Secretary at least one month before. If you wish to add anything, then please raise this as early as possible. Then, your views or discussion points will be included.
Accommodation: We’ve chosen camping as it makes it easier to socially distance… however, there are camper options and teepees available for those who want more comfort. Please book early! We are camping at Newfold Farm campsite in Edale.

Food: Bring your own… there is a small shop and a very good takeaway pizza oven on the campsite, and these may be open for our visit. Updates to follow
Services: Bank machines in Chesterfield and Buxton on the roads in… bring cash and card. Small shops in Hathersage. Probably best to get what you need before arriving…
Transport: Car is best… Otherwise, arrive at Edale by train (walking distance from campsite) or Hathersage by bus from Manchester or Sheffield and we will pick you up if you give us enough time to coordinate. Those travelling from Denmark, this is the trip not to be missed, and many of you haven’t! Contact Jim and he will try to coordinate lifts (if allowed) or direct you to the best airports… Probably Manchester (currently SAS and Easyjet) or Birmingham (currently SAS). If conditions allow, Jim can pick you up Thursday night in Bristol (Easyjet) and will coordinate departure if you get in touch! Good luck!
