Anesu Matanda Mambingo (she/her)

Aye up, I’m Anesu, but also go by Ness. I’ve recently moved up to Scotland from Sheffield and am one of the newer members of the ClimbOut team helping out with the EDI team.

It was almost impossible not to start climbing when I moved to Sheffield in 2018 and I’ve kind of never looked back since! I am very much a boulderer but everyone now and then I attempt to tackle my fear of heights with some roped climbing.

Climbing has always brought me so much joy and I’m really passionate about sharing it, and the outdoors in general, with as many people as possible.

I was unable to join ClimbOut last year and knew I had to go this time after hearing about all the joy and the incredible space and community that managed to come together. See ya there this year!
