What is a caving club?
To most cavers, a very worthwhile and helpful item. Caving clubs often have a tackle store, which is useful for beginners when finding out what they might need for caving, without having the financial outlay. Clubs also offer regular organised caving trips with experienced cavers, which is an excellent opportunity for beginners to learn. Some clubs also have their own caving hut, which allows members to stay in a certain caving area with good facilities. An important aspect of caving clubs is their social side, which is often regarded as essential (especially after a good trip!). There is usually an annual fee to be a member of a club and some publish a journal, which members receive.
