Story

Every year the team at Stockigns/Messagemaker Displays, along with some of our customers & suppliers take on an epic challenge in the aid of raising money for our local charity - The Children's Trust. Last year we scaled Poland's highest mountain and raised an amazing £15,000.

We are back again with another challenge for 2024, this year we will be taking on ‘The Home of the Gods’ Mt. Olympus! A massive 9500ft mountain in Greece.

This is a 2 day trek to the summit and back down again. We will be staying overnight at 8,800ft in a mountain hut and taking on the summit on day 2.

The final ascent to the summit is where it gets really tricky, we will have to don harnesses and helmets to take on this Class III YSD graded ascent to the top.

It will require a head for heights as well as a lot of fitness to top the mighty Olympus at just under 3000m.

Our chosen charity is again The Children’s Trust. The UK’s leading charity for children with injury. Based in Tadworth (local to our HQ) the Trust runs a range of specialist care, education and therapy services for children and young people from across the UK and the UK’s largest rehabilitation centre for children with acquired brain injury (ABI)
