Ice Factor

Ice Factor support the Help for Heroes Campaign, The British Legion and the annual Poppy Campaigns. As a number of our staff have/are retained Fire Fighters for Highlands and Islands Fire Service we have a strong affinity with the Brigades, and have instructed and coached representatives of almost every major Fire Bridge in the UK. Our work with the Police has seen units from S019, Serious Crime Squad and every Mountain Rescue Team in Scotland use the Ice Factor for training and expedition support. Our local Mountain Rescue Teams - Glencoe Mountain Rescue, Lochaber Mountain Rescue(who are amongst the busiest MRT's in Europe), Oban Mountain Rescue, Killin Mountain Rescue and Arrochar Mountain Rescue Team are frequent visitors, using the centre to train on specific rescue techniques or to brush up on core skills on rock climbing and ice climbing. Teams from further afield (Dundonell Mountain Rescue Team, Skye Mountain Rescue Team, Torridon Mountain Rescue Team and Cairngorm Mountain Rescue) are regular visitors throughout the year and several of the RAF Mountain Rescue Teams (Particularly Kinloss - sadly no more - and RAF Leuchars have been mainstay customers). We provide discounts for major group bookings and are delighted to assist with organizing your multi-day requirements.
