Story

We did it. 🏔️

50mph winds. Zero sleep. 2am start.

107,000 steps. 4,800m of elevation. 1.5 marathons. 21 hours. 0 blisters across all 16 of us.

Snowdon climbed 4.5 times.

What started as a slightly questionable life choice turned into one of the most powerful things we've ever been part of. Every step was taken for the men who struggle in silence. Every summit was for them.

Because of your generosity, we smashed our target and raised £3,000 for men's mental health through IceBreakers. That money will keep compounding long after our legs have recovered.

To every single person who donated, shared, or believed in us, thank you. You were with us on that mountain.

Onwards and upwards. Literally. 🔥

IceBreakers brings men together every week to do hard things outdoors. Cold water. Hiking. Sauna. Fire. Not therapy, not a programme. Just men facing challenges together, staying sharp and staying connected.

Some blokes arrive carrying a lot. Others just want to stay on top of their game. Either way, you don’t do it alone.

That’s what makes it work. It’s not about fixing yourself. It’s about never letting yourself drift in the first place.

Every session is free. Every session is open. And every week, more men are showing up.

Personally, I've found Icebreakers really valuable as a solo entrepreneur as entrepreneurship can be an isolating journey. I'd plug away doing long hours often sacrificing social life elsewhere. I've found this group to have an brilliant concentration of ambitious people including entrepreneurs, each building amazing things.

This hike hurt. That’s the point. One day of discomfort to help keep these spaces free, so more men have somewhere to show up, stay grounded, and stay well.

£20 keeps a session running.

£100 helps train leaders who make it possible.

Whatever you give goes straight to growth, training, and safety.

It's not too late to donate.

We appreciate it.
