Head Above Water with Alex Staniforth

About

Alex Staniforth is a record-breaking adventurer, ultra-endurance athlete, author and charity founder from Chester who is no stranger to overcoming challenges. At just 28 he has already survived the two biggest disasters in Mount Everest history as a teenager. However, his biggest challenges have been closer to home: with mental ill health, epilepsy, stammering and bullying since school.

Alex is now committed to helping others achieve their own Everest. He has raised over £100,000 for charity, become the fastest person to climb all 100 UK county tops, written two books ‘Icefall’ and ‘Another Peak’ and founded Mind Over Mountains, a charity to restore mental health through nature.

Now based in Kendal, Alex will be sharing stories from his Coast to Coast run and more about Project 500.
