Updates on our Annapurna IV expedition will be more infrequent due to the remoteness of the peak and will depend on weather conditions, etc. For regular updates please visit adventurepeaks.com/annapurn...

Thank you so much, linda49. Before my PMR I was involved in nearly 30 expeditions and it will be great to get back on one of the remotest, coldest and dangerous mountains in the world. Thank you for your support x

The link to the Virgin just giving page states that the fundraising has now closed. Is this correct?

Thanks John. The link you’ve just provided has worked fine. Perhaps it is older links which are now inactive?

Love your story and following along. My PMR has held me back from doing what I love, running, triathlons, etc. At 54, and with PMR for the last 2 years the battle continues. Doing my best that I CAN.
