A climbing center for kids in Reading is set to open soon.

Clip ‘n’ Climb in Arborfield will offer two dozen unique climbing challenges for ages four plus.

The converted grain store will include a birthday party area and café for families.

"I decided to open a Clip 'n’ Climb in Reading because my children had been to another Clip 'n’ Climb when visiting relatives and had an amazing and fun-packed time,” said owner Jon Robinson.

“From this, I wondered why Reading and the surrounding area didn't have a Clip 'n Climb, or to be more precise my children asked me why there wasn't a Clip 'n’ Climb they could go to back home and I began what turned out to be a three – year journey to find the perfect site and location.”
