Story

Alex is up for his latest 'Mountain' of a Challenge. He and the team will be walking up 8,800m (Summit of Everest) in the iconic Cheesegrater building in London.

For an able bodied, fit individual, it takes 20 minute to make one (52 storey) ascent of the building... to conquer the height of Everest the Team will need to complete 39 ascents!!

For Alex and the limited mobility that his Motor Neurone Disease has caused, this inspiring challenge will take 35+ hours!!

We are looking to raise awareness and funds to support families living with this disease... for details please see www.challengingmnd.org

If you would like to secure 1 of the 10 available places on this once in a lifetime event and can access a corporate sponsor as well as personally raising a minimum of £100 hurry to get in touch.. places are going fast and are on a first come first served basis.
