Rupert Jones-Warner - Mountaineer and Ultra runner
We are delighted that Rupert will be joining us on Wednesday 9th March.
Rupert grew up in Chichester and spent much of his youth; running, cycling and sailing in Chichester Harbour. He also sailed competitively as part of the RYA Team GBR National Youth Squad in international regattas around the world.
At the age of 22, having been inspired by famous climbers through the years, Rupert took up mountaineering for the first time. Sailing and marathon running consequently took a backseat to make way for his mountaineering adventures. Rupert holds the record as the youngest Briton to summit the notorious Annapurna and he has also summitted Mount Everest.
Currently serving in the military, Rupert is combining his training with his mountaineering ambitions in order to climb the highest mountains on the planet. This April, he will begin his next great adventure when he climbs Kanchenjunga, the third highest mountain in the world. If this wasn't challenging enough, he will then descend and travel 330 miles by foot through the high Himalayas and back to Kathmandu.
There is no need to book. We look forward to welcoming you all.
