Story
The name Millimetres 2 Mountains encapsulates founder Ed Jacksons journey. Having undergone an operation to repair a fracture dislocation of his c6/c7 vertebrae, he lay, quadriplegic, on his back in ICU with only limited movement in his right arm. Despite the bleak prognosis, through hard work, a great deal of support and sheer bloody mindedness, bit by bit his body returned to him.
Despite his disability Ed has reached some impressive heights since his accident however in that time he came to realise that it wasnt about the destination or any particular summit, it was about the connection he had developed with the outdoors, the people he was meeting along the way, and the emotional impact of achieving things that he had gone on to believe would never be possible again.
Millimetres to Mountains aim is to be the catalyst for positive change in people facing challenges in life. Through discovery and adventure we provide a platform for individuals to redefine their own limitations and take steps towards a brighter future.
