Jeremy Peet, Director of Camp5 giving his speech to the media.

”Climbing is non-competitive, can be practiced individually or in a group,
requires a healthy balance of strength, focus, flexibility and co-ordination.
Most importantly, climbing is fun and challenging and therefore a great motivational activity for people of all ages.
No matter what colour of level you are climbing, there is always another level to aim for and
this goal setting attitude is carried across into other areas of life.”
