Adoption agency launches new virtual challenge
Birmingham-based adoption agency Adoption Focus is promoting a new virtual challenge with a twist! Could you climb the tallest mountain in the world? Many people dream of climbing Everest, or even visiting base camp, but unfortunately, it's out of the reach of most people, so how about climbing it virtually?
Mount Everest is the highest point on earth and one of the biggest physical challenges a person can take on! Sitting 8.848 metres above sea level. You can follow in the footsteps of Sir Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay and climb to the top of Mount Everest.
So, can you climb the equivalent of Mount Everest in 12 weeks? In this challenge, you can go out to the hills on your daily exercise or simply tackle the stairs a couple of (hundred) times every day. Once you've achieved an elevation gain of 8,848m, you'll just need to submit your evidence to get your well-earned medal.
Adoption Focus fundraising manager Robert J Mitchell said: “This is something a bit different but nonetheless a very difficult and rewarding challenge, which I'm sure will capture the attention of your friends, family and work colleagues who will help you raise much needed funds for a great cause. We are raising funds to ensure that all our adopted families have the lifelong support and expert advice that they need to flourish.”
