Lanchester Mountaineering Club, affiliated to the BMC (no.H910392)

The Lanchester Mountaineering Club (Lanch) was formed in 1995 by former students of Coventry University. The name Lanchester is derived from the original name of Coventry University: The Lanchester Polytechnic. Many of the Lanch members belonged to Coventry University Mountaineering Society (CUMS) whilst at University and wanted to carry on the opportunity to meet up regularly in order to partake in various activities. A longer summary of the Club's history is on the About Us page.

The Club is involved in every aspect of mountain sports including rock climbing, hill walking, ice climbing, winter mountaineering and ski mountaineering but the Lanch is far more than a mountain sports club. Many members are also involved in other activities such as canoeing, surfing, kite buggying, skiing and even some Arctic Exploration.

Lanchester club members have now spread throughout the country and include many members who did not attend Coventry University. Also due to the ever-expanding membership the club has developed its constitution to enable young families to attend events.
