About Us

**CURRENT COVID SITUATION INFO**

Due to the local lockdown we are currently unable to host any meetings in person whatsoever until we are informed by the Students Union otherwise. After local restrictions lift, we expect we may be able to host events on campus but with social distancing, masks, and limited numbers. Current guidelines mean WE CANNOT HOST ANY OFF-CAMPUS EVENTS/TRIPS which means no walks/hikes until further notice.

Please join our FACEBOOK GROUP (https://www.facebook.com/groups/185083872069354/) to keep up to date with information. We apologise to anyone looking forward to our events this year but we can only host online activities until we receive guidance from the university allowing us to hold off-campus events. 

If you're interested in making new friends within our society we have created a discord open to all. The link will be available from our facebook group linked above and on this page. 

NUMS

The Northumbria University Mountaineering Society (NUMS) seeks to provide the students of Northumbria with skills and experiences to support their Mountaineering and University endeavours.

NUMS aims to:

  •  Provide opportunities for members to escape from studying and to enhance the University experience through social and mountaineering pursuits.

  • Assist in the development of leadership, teamwork, and mountaineering skills in a safe, challenging, and rewarding environment.

Our Events
