The Association of Mountaineering Instructors is the representative body for professional instructors who have undergone rigorous training and assessment to qualify under Mountain Leader Training UK (MLTUK) guidelines
The Union of International Mountain Leaders is the International body representing holders of the IML. This qualification lets the holder lead groups in different mountains all over the world, where the skills of alpinism are not required. IMLs can work with groups on high altitude treks as well as leading groups on snow shoes. IML’s, from every member country, have to maintain International Continuing Professional Development (ICPD) to ensure that members are kept up-to-date with the latest developments in mountain leadership.
The British Association of International Mountain Leaders is the Professional Organisation representing and overseeing British holders of the IML award
The Mountain Leader Training Association is the body for holders of all levels of awards under the MLTUK scheme
This logo means that I am an approved provider of National Governing Body awards under Mountain Leader Training Scotland

Climb When Youre Ready


'Ready to climb'
'Climb when you're ready'
'Climbing'
'Ok'
The sequence of climbing calls
above is more than just a safety
check before climbing. Its an
acknowledgement that the
climber is ready to commit to
the route ahead and that their
partner is ready to look after
them.
I love teaching, coaching and
instructing mountain activities
but I believe that the experience
should be designed for you and
at your pace. Thats why you
wont find any 'off the shelf'
courses on this site. A day out
with me is more about you and
your aspirations. Lets climb when
YOU are ready.
Welcome to 'Climb When You're Ready'; climbing and mountaineering
instruction and guiding from Alan Halewood. I am a passionate climber
and mountaineer with extensive experience working and playing at home
and abroad (see About Me for more information). I love being a
Mountaineering Instructor and working with people of all levels of
abilities. If you have a question drop me a line. Simple advice is free and
