Story

Text Kyra98 £10 to 70070 to donate instantly!

My daughter Kyra is 7 years old and loves playing energetically with her friends. If her rare birth defect is left untreated, she will have her leg amputated above the knee.   I am fundraising towards the £95,000 goal for her life-changing surgery by taking on a unique climbing challenge. 

What am I climbing:

Olympus Mons, a volcano on Mars, is the highest mountain in the solar system with an approximate height of 22,000 metres.  I will lead a core group to climb the equivalent height (2,200 ascents) throughout the day at the climbing wall in High Sports Brighton to fundraise for 'Step With Kyra'. 

How high is it: 

Depending where you measure from, the summit is listed as somewhere between 21,000m and 26,000m, but the picture I found mentions 22,000m which is a valid measurement from "the local relief".

How many ascents: 
The routes at High Sports Brighton vary between about 8m and 13m. For simplicity, I've said that an average ascent is 10m, therefore it's 2,200 ascents.

Support:
Please support me by pledging.  Alternatively (or additionally) come join in and climb a few hundred metres! No equipment, experience or space suit is necessary. Contact me for more details.
