On 6 August last year, Stuart had a very serious rock climbing accident. He was in intensive care for several weeks with head injuries, also having broken his neck and back in several places. He was in a body brace for three months and has since then began his slow and steady progress to recovery. Without the prompt and skilled actions of mountain rescue, the outcome could have been very different.

A year on from accident I am going to attempt to walk 26 miles round Ullswater in The Lake District to raise funds for Keswick Mountain Rescue. The money raised will help to ensure they can continue to carry out this amazing volunteer service.

Please sponsor me if you are able.
