London Landmarks Climbing Challenge Report - 10/4/22
A Man&Boy event to remember!
12 April 2022

London Landmarks Climbing Challenge was undoubtedly the one to remember! 

 

Nine families took part in the London Landmarks Climbing on Sunday, 10th April 2022 at The White Spider, completing 256 climbs, or 2 701m in 3 hours, raising £1,223 + gift aid

 

After a brief introduction, our boys and men were quickly kitted up and began, eager to climb the equivalent distance of a landmark of their choice. 

The pairs worked as teams and took turns climbing up and down the climbing walls at White Spider. 

 

The most famous landmark was The Nelson's column (52m, 5 climbs), which was climbed 12 times, followed by the Big Ben and The London Eye climbed respectively six times, The Canary Wharf and The Gherkin were climbed two times each.

My husband and son enjoyed MAN&BOY very much, they had great time and my son came back with a lot of difference in him - in good way by the way! I wish there were more things like this for children and adults to build their relationship ... Many thanks for all you have done for our family.
