The British Caving Association (BCA) is the national organization that supports, promotes, and coordinates caving activities across the UK.

The BCA also offers training, organizes events, and fosters a community for both recreational and scientific cavers. Its aim is to ensure responsible exploration, protect cave environments, and develop the skills and knowledge of cavers nationwide. In essence, it acts as a unifying body that promotes safe and sustainable caving practices.
