Conquer Everest...at home! · 8 February 2021

Ever thought about conquering the great heights of the mighty Mount Everest, well why not try it from the comfort of your own home?! Take on this epic challenge during lockdown, conquer within 12 weeks and earn your medal!

Story

The kind support you give towards this epic challenge will go towards supporting Gurkha veterans, their families and wider communities in Nepal, ensuring they are able to live their lives with dignity through the provisions of financial, medical and community aid. For 200 years they fought for us, now we fight for them.

In 2012 I went to Everest base camp in reality , now in 2021 I'm going to the summit (virtually!!).
I will be climbing the height of Mt Everest using my stairs at home and at work. To reach the 8848m summit from sea level , I'll be climbing my stairs 3,105 times over the next 12 weeks  , which works out as 259 times a week and 37 times a day.

Thank you for any donations you are able to give which will go to support people and communities in the amazing country of Nepal.
