The BMC London & South East Area Meeting will take place at Ye Olde Cock Tavern, Holborn, central London on Wednesday 12 April 2017, starting at 7.00 pm.
Come along to our regular gathering of climbers and walkers in the London and South East area. The evening includes a discussion of local and national issues, a guest speaker, a bar and food, and a prize draw raffle, so it should be a great night out.
BMC area meetings are run by volunteers and are your chance to join in with debate and influence decisions about what happens in your area as well as the rest of the country.
Motion of No Confidence
A major talking point of the meeting will no doubt be the motion of ‘no confidence’ in the BMC Executive Committee, which will be voted on at the BMC AGM on 22 April – members can also vote by proxy if they won’t be attending the AGM.
Affinity Partnerships and Mend Our Mountains2
Simon Lee, our commercial partnerships manager will be at the meeting to talk about and discuss affinity partnerships, and hill walking development officer Carey Davies will also attend, to hear feedback from the last Mend Our Mountains campaign, and talk about plans for a follow-up initiative this year.
James McHaffie talk
Guest speaker for the evening is James McHaffie, whose talk will roam far and high from new routing and UK trad to the big walls of Yosemite.
All are welcome; food will be provided by the BMC.
Raffle prize kindly donated by Cold Mountain Kit

BMC AGM 17: It's time to make your voice heard
A no-confidence motion has been proposed for our April Annual General Meeting. If it succeeds, your BMC may not continue to be as diverse and ready for whatever the future throws at us.
We need your help: use your vote in our Annual Meeting
