Story
From the 17th October to 14th November 2024 I will be attempting to climb 3 x 6000M mountains in Nepal, back to back, to raise money for The Fire Fighters Charity. These will be Mera Peak (6,476m), Island Peak (6,189m) and Lobuche East (6,145m).
I have some mountaineering experience, having previously summited Kilimanjaro, Mount Blanc and Elbrus, however this will be my 1st time above 6000m.
I have worked for the Fire Service for over 22 years (Oxfordshire) and have seen 1st hand the great work the Charity do, including numerous colleagues who have benefitted from the support provided, as well as my partner Sarah who was supported for a back injury.
The Fire Fighters Charity offers specialist lifelong health & wellbeing support for the UK fire & rescue community, empowering individuals and families to achieve mental, physical and social wellbeing throughout their lives. This includes serving and retired firefighters, control and support teams.
