Summit Up are delighted to be offering free Easter Holiday Camps for eligible children. To qualify, children must be aged between 6 and 10, live in the Oldham postcode area, and have a valid HAF code.
Our camps run from 30th March to 10th April, Monday to Friday. Each day includes four hours of provision. Children will enjoy a session on Clip ’n Climb with over 35 challenges, a dedicated room for welcome icebreakers, games and crafts, plus a delicious hot meal and snacks served daily.
We run two sessions on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. The first session is from 9am to 1pm and the second is from 3pm to 7pm.
Every Tuesday we run a SEND-only session from 3pm to 7pm for disabled and neurodivergent children. We have a range of adaptive equipment to make all walls accessible, as well as a breakout room and a sensory room. These groups are smaller and more flexible. The centre is also quieter on Tuesday evenings as this session coincides with our regular SEND session.
We cannot allow parents to come into the sessions with the children, however they can stay on site in our cafe, or are free to leave the children in our care. For SEND we welcome parents and carers to stay. If your child needs any personal care, a parent or carer must stay on site.
Please book early to guarantee your place. Only book if you are available to attend, as these places are funded by Oldham Council and we want to ensure every spot is filled.
We are excited to invite local teachers and youth group leaders to The Summit Up Educator Experience at Summit Up Climbing.
This special event is designed to give you the opportunity to try climbing for yourself, explore our facilities, and learn more about how we support schools and youth groups through engaging, confidence-building experiences. Whether you are looking for an exciting school trip, a team-building session, or a new activity for your young people, we would love to showcase what we offer.
We are currently gathering expressions of interest to help us confirm a date and time that works best for attendees. There is no commitment at this stage - simply let us know if you would be interested in attending and your preferred availability.
If you would like to register your interest, please complete the short form https://forms.gle/QAfUajaePoJCbRK89

We are excited to offer two Mini Mountaineer sessions now on Saturdays and Sundays! These 1 hour climbing sessions are designed for little ones aged 2 - 4 years. Sessions now run at 9am and 9:30pm, and older siblings are welcome to join.
