Supporting The Juniper Fund

The allure of the mountains is undeniable, captivating adventurers from around the world. Yet, they remain unpredictable and unforgiving.

Every climbing season Himalayan high-altitude workers, just doing their jobs, are lost to the mountains. When this tragically happens the family left behind are not only struck with the reality and grief of losing their loved one, but also find themselves in an extremely disadvantaged situation financially.

This is where The Juniper Fund steps in, providing cost of living grants, vocational training, and business grants to help empower families to create sustainable businesses to replace the lost income of their loved one.

In over one hundred years of Everest expeditions, a third of all deaths belonged to Sherpa. So I'm fundraising this year to highlight the debt my fellow climbers and I owe the Himalayan high-altitude worker community, and to raise the profile of a charity very close to my heart.
