Mayor's fund benefits city climbing venue
POSTED 02 Feb 2011 . BY Pete Hayman
New facilities have been funded by the mayor's sport legacy fund
A new-look climbing and bouldering centre at Westway Sports Centre, White City, has been unveiled by Kate Hoey, the London mayor's commissioner for sport.

Westway Climbing Centre - the only combined climbing and bouldering venue in the UK - has benefited from £42,000 through the mayor's Playsport London Facilities Fund.

The facility, which is located beneath the Westway flyover, is run by Westway Development Trust and is used as a training centre by elite British climbers.

A bouldering wall at Westway Climbing Centre has been replaced and made fully accessible with the help of the funding, which aims to ensure a lasting legacy from the 2012 Olympics.

Hoey said: "The opening of this bouldering wall is just the latest example of us delivering on our commitment to a genuine grass-roots sporting legacy from London 2012."
