Ian Johnson

We have been shocked and saddened to hear that club member Ian Johnson died in a climbing accident on Tower Ridge on Ben Nevis on Saturday 8 July. Ian had been a member since 1998, and had led a number of alpine tours for the club in recent years. The club's sympathy goes out to Ian's wife Debbie (who is also a long-standing member of the club) and to other members of his family.

Further to the sad news about Ian, the funeral is being held this Thursday 20th July at Burnley Crematorium, Accrington Road, Burnley, Lancashire, BB11 5DD at 3.40pm, followed by a wake at the The New Waggoners Inn, Manchester Road, Burnley, Lancashire BB11 5NS.

Very sad news. Condolences to all.
