Story

Hi and thanks for visiting.

Snowdon is the highest mountain in and at 1085 metres.

There are seven recognised routes to ascend Snowdon, the challenge is to ascend and descend all seven, in one go, back to back, wearing full fire service protective clothing and carrying Breathing Apparatus weighing approximately 24lbs, in addition to any kit required to complete the task.  This is a World Record attempt!

I'm doing this for four charities, Birmingham Childrens Hospital, Great Ormond Street Hospital, Help for Heroes and the Samantha Dickson Brain Tumour Trust.  Please see the links if you want to donate.

Help for Heroes was established because now more than ever, the plight of our injured Service men and women returning from conflicts and operations around the globe are at the forefront of our minds.

It is imperative that that there is a support network dedicated to their recovery and resettlement upon returning to the .

Our support will help provide remedial facilities and services to our service men and women when they most need it.  Therefore Help for Heroes will benefit from the challenge.
