The IRATA rope access course at 5th point is challenging but rewarding. The instructors are well informed and encouraging. The facility has plenty of space with many different features to learn rope access techniques. Good technique is stressed here, push DOWN with that leg! Sorry and thanks Leigh and the 5th point team for letting me sweat all over the place!

Absolutely top-notch training experience at 5th Point Rope Access!
The instructors here are truly amazing — their knowledge is phenomenal, but what really stood out was how they take the time to interact with every student. They make sure you fully understand the material and feel confident and comfortable throughout the course. Josh, Laura, and the owner Leigh are absolute legends — easily some of the best in the business.

The facilities are great too — the building is clean and well-organized, and the kitchen utilities are a good standard, which makes the whole experience even better.

Whether you’re looking to do IRATA training, GWO, or Working at Heights, 5th Point has you covered. I can’t recommend them enough for anyone serious about rope access and safety training.

I did my first time level 1 with 5th Point.
Leigh was genuine, Josh was patient and great at explaining new concepts in plain English, Laura kept us in line and up to scratch.
It was a pleasure to learn from the team, and I recommend it to anyone interested in venturing into the rope access arena.

Fantastic training centre and equipment, and some unreal instructors!
Even when the students have such hugely varied backgrounds, skills, and experience levels, these guys were able to meet each one of us exactly where we needed to be and get the best out of us. Massive credit to you! Looking forward to doing many more quals with you 👍👍

Can't thank the guys at 5th point enough. Was not confident at the start of the week but with the help of Josh and Chris it all came together by the end of the week, they always believed in me. The free 1 day course is also awesome value when factored into the price. Facilities are great, on site parking and all the gear you need as a L2 or 3

Thanks again
