My story

 

The Enham Kilimanjaro Challenge 2008

We all have our Mountains to climb - THEY DID IT!

Disability charity Enham are thrilled to announce that three of our clients summated Mount Kilimanjaro!  Congratulations go to James Smith, Alex Adams and James Bridges on this phenomenal achievement.   

Up there with them were members of Enham staff.  Susie Snudden made it to the top and within a whisper of the summit were James' buddy Claire Holt, Jane McFarlane, Sheila Oldacre, Dr Jack and Saudi climbers Ali and Ahmed who all must be feeling literally on top of the world.  Expedition leader Steve Ballantyne has said how immensely proud he is to be part of the climb and that it ranks amongst the best expedition he has ever taken part in.

Other members of the team to summit were Hans and Herta Von Stiegel, Bryan Magee, Luke Purse, Doctors Chris and Laura, James' second buddy Morgan Roy and also Greg, Kyle, Michael, Gordon and Kate from the film team.

Altitude sickness and raw feet took their toll; but Pauline Griffin, Jamie Magee, Liz Curtis, Michael Steel and Val Bradshaw reached the dizzy heights of 14,000 feet before they succumbed.  This is the height that tandem parachutists jump from so they are all to be congratulated at this amazing feat.
