Of course, I forgot to mention possibly the most exciting Thursday evening talk in February (in my opinion, and 'cause I forgot about it - Silly me!)

Jeff Frew, "Attitude at Altitude" with proceeds to Community Action Nepal (CAN)

Jeff Frew is a director of Community Action Treks, and a trustee of Community Action Nepal (CAN). CAN was originally set up by Doug Scott, who I think you've probably heard of! http://canepal.org.uk/pages/about-can.php

CAN is a charity that supports Nepalese mountain communities, in the shape of schools and health posts, for example. Remember, these communities provide the sherpas, upon whose backs all the top Himalayan mountaineers secure their fame and fortune. Without the Sherpas, there would be no Himalayan mountaineering – Fact!

So come along and support a worthy cause, and hear an excellent talk about the highest mountains in the world!
