Eurostar have reversed their policy and removed references to ice axes, crampons, etc from the restricted dangerous sports equipment section on their website. Following lobbying by our Club, Mountaineering Scotland, the BMC and Mountaineering Ireland wrote jointly to Eurostar and the website has now been changed. Eurostar say that "...you are able to bring mountaineering equipment with you when you travel by Eurostar. We ask only that any passenger carrying this kind of equipment makes themselves known to a member of the Eurostar team in the station on arrival so that they can ensure the smooth passage through the security/baggage check.".

Producing our popular e-newsletters is a great opportunity to do something that helps people within the Club to come together. Different people can bring new, fresh ideas about how we do things. It's pretty easy to learn the ropes and the existing Newsletter Editor will provide support initially. If you'd like to find out more, please get in touch with me by email at: news@eagleskiclub.org.uk. 

If you've changed your email or postal address or your telephone number in the last year or two, please note that your Mountaineering Scotland record needs to be updated in addition to your club record (applies only to British Isles members). You can do this by logging in to your Mountaineering Scotland account (link below) OR by notifying our Membership Secretary (membership@eagleskiclub.org.uk). If you haven't updated your club record, please do so as soon as you can - having up-to-date information helps us a lot!
