Sponsored Climbs

Obtaining sponsorship funds is becoming increasingly difficult for small groups - nationally organised campaigns using all the power of the media and celebrities mean that small groups have to use novel ideas to gain the support for their causes.

Working primarily with charities and larger corporations with graduate training schemes, sponsored climbs are an excellent way to raise money for a chosen needy organisation and maximise the public involvement with the host organisation. We can provide a number of “themed” events, but we encourage you to develop your own.

Usually, teams of climbers work in shifts to climb continuously. Climbing the equivalent of Mt Everest (8848m) means a significant 1200 individual climbs – a dedicated team of fit adults would take approximately 22 hours. Climbing the equivalent of a full marathon (nearly 42km) requires a mammoth 5730 individual climbs – that’s over 4 days solid climbing!
