Story

My name is Cian Paton, I turn 6 years old this month, and I love adventure and helping people. My daddy also loves adventure, and is a nurse who has worked with the spinally injured. This September he, and the Martin's Mountain team, is helping one such person attempt to climb Kilimanjaro; Martin Hibbert was sadly spinally injured at the Manchester Arena bombing, but is determined to show the world and other injured people that there is life after paralysis. 

I thought, that as I love the outdoors, and want to be an explorer when I'm older, I would attempt to climb the highest peak in Wales on 20th June, just after my birthday, with my parents. My daddy has helped me lots with my training, hiking up a steep hill on my way home from school, and walking miles every week. We all have mountains to climb every day, and if you'd like to show your appreciation to those who's mountains may be a little bigger, please consider donating here. Any donations you might want to give to spur me on, will go to the Spinal Injuries Association in honour of Martin's Mountain and are very gratefully received. Thank you

On 22nd May 2017, Martin Hibbert's life changed forever. Martin was the closest survivor of the Manchester Arena bombing which tragically took the lives of 22 people. A bolt went straight through him, severing his spinal cord, leaving him paralysed below the waist. Martin is taking on the incredible challenge of raising £1million for Spinal Injuries Association, the organisation that have supported him in his recovery and gave him the hope, confidence and practical skills to start again. Martin, supported by a team of people that have helped to save and rebuild his life, will be climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro in September of this year. Inspired by his story and this incredible challenge, we have decided to set our own challenge of raising money to help him towards his incredible goal. We will be #EVERYDAYMOUNTAINEERS, the team behind the team, supporting Martin by taking on our own challenges, raising money, and inspiring others to do the same.
