Staircase Summits| Mount Everest · 2 May 2020

Alzheimer’s Research UK is the UK’s leading dementia research charity. We’re striving for a cure, by revolutionising the way we treat, diagnose and prevent dementia.

Story

In times of uncertainty, locked down in our homes, we often wonder when we'll be able to travel to our favourite places with the people we care about most. 

I am in a position where I'm unable to see a close loved one due to them being in the high risk category during this epidemic. This loved one has Alzheimers disease which means that medical support  (if needed)  would be a distant dream. 

With love for challenges and a mission to raise money and awareness for Alzheimers Research UK (and possibly one or two too many beers) I've decided to climb Mount Everest!! (On the stairs at home!!)

On May 2nd I will be setting off on an adventure up and down my stairs passing through base camp, advanced base camp (6429m), North Col (7000m), Camp 2 (7500m), Camp 3 (8300M),1st Step, 2nd Step and then Summiting at 8850m (29035ft of elevation on my stairs!)


With so many causes in need of support now seemingly more then ever, I will be fundraising for the cause closest to my heart and attempting something that will put a smile on the face of my loved ones 

Confined by walls but not by our imagination, I challenge any one who may have also had one too many beers to pick a summit somewhere in the world (big or not so big), share your expedition with your friends and loved ones, choose a cause close to your heart and get your Selfie on your STAIRCASE SUMMIT  !!!!


My chosen charity: ALZHEIMERS RESEARCH UK 

For every £1 donated, 77p powers life-changing research and helps people to understand and take action on dementia. The remaining 23p raises our next £1 and funds essential running costs.
