It is with great sadness that we have to announce the passing of Brian Moors today, he was a major contributor to the success of A C Wallbridge over the years and still remaining a Director right up to the end!

He will be greatly missed especially by myself as he has offered me a lot of support since I took over the MD role 6 years ago, and there definitely wouldn’t be a Wallbridge with out him!

If you have a spare 5 minutes take a look at this video, it was his last ever climb of Salisbury Cathedral which was filmed by Blue Peter!

RIP Brian
