Refugees Rock Bristol Climbs Everest May 4th
Bristol, Bristol City, United Kingdom
Aim
We're climbing the height of Everest in one day to raise funds for the Bristol Refugees Rock group.
To climb the equivalent of Mount Everest in one day.
Climbers getting together to climb 8,849m high in one day at the The Climbing Academy (TCA), Mothership, Bristol.
TCA's walls are approximately 4m high so we'll need to complete a minimum of 2,212 climbs between us all!
Maybe we can climb higher than Everest... with a little help from our friends?
The core team would be tackling more than 200 climbs each! We'd love some help from the climbing community to reach our goal, and maybe even further...
Get involved! Drop by at any point between 9am-5pm and donate some climbs on our tally sheet. Or simply come along to support us, grab some refreshments, and learn more about Refugees Rock.
Where your money goes...
With The Climbing Academy providing the space for our sessions at no cost, donations will be sent directly to Refugees Rock Bristol to continue covering participants' travel expenses, ensuring completely free access to weekly climbing for refugees and asylum-seekers in Bristol. If we raise enough, we may even look to the outdoors to organise an trip or two...
