Climbing Higher, Together – Building a Space for Community, Well-being & Faith

At Broomhill Methodist Centre, we believe that buildings should serve the community, not sit empty. Right now, our space has so much potential to be more than just a building--it can become a hub for activity, well-being, connection, and faith. That's why we're transforming it into something truly special:

  • A community bouldering wall that welcomes all--whether you're a beginner, a seasoned climber, or someone looking to improve your well-being through movement.
  • A creative play space where children and families can explore, create, and connect, making it easier for families to spend quality time together in a fun and inspiring environment.
  • A church space that is open and accessible to all--a place where people can gather, share, and explore faith in a welcoming, inclusive way. This isn't about a traditional Sunday service; it's about creating a space where people feel safe, heard, and connected, regardless of their background or beliefs.

This isn't just about climbing walls and play areas--it's about building a thriving, supportive, and faith-filled community. We want this space to be a place where people of all backgrounds can come together--where faith, fun, and friendship can grow.

Why Are We Doing This?

Because movement, play, faith, and community matter.

We know that climbing isn't just about reaching the top--it's about building confidence, resilience, and trust. It's about overcoming challenges, both on and off the wall. And for many, it's a lifeline to better mental and physical health.

We also know that families need more spaces to come together, to build relationships, support one another, and simply have fun in an inclusive and welcoming environment.

And just as we want to create a space for movement and play, we also want to create a space for reflection, conversation, and faith. A space where church feels accessible to everyone--where faith is something that can be explored alongside community, adventure, and shared experiences.

This space will be so much more than a climbing centre--it will be a community hub where people can come for connection, well-being, support, and faith in action. Whether it's through climbing, creative play, coffee and conversation, or moments of reflection, we want to offer something for everyone.

With the support of The Climbing Works Broomhill, we're making sure this space isn't just another gym--it's a community-focused, mission-driven initiative that welcomes everyone.
