Wheelchair adventurer set to summit Snowdon
A wheelchair-using adventurer is preparing to tackle one of the UK's highest peaks in a charity fundraiser.
Mountains aren't always the most accessible place for wheelchair users, but 55-year-old David Bainbridge is determined to reach the summit of Wales's highest peak.
David, from Montgomery, lives with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS), a rare genetic disorder that affects the body’s connective tissue.
On September 24, volunteers with the charity Jubilee Sailing Trust (JST) will be assisting David, and challenge partner, Abi Bubb, to ascend the mountain to demonstrate how people can work together to overcome diversity in the 'Pulling together up Snowdon' challenge.
