Climbing champion Richard Parks will lead 13 women from all walks of life on a charity trek to Everest Base Camp next month.
A former Wales international rugby player, Richard became a world-record holder after completing the 737 challenge.
Last year he climbed to the highest point on each of the world’s seven continents, and journeyed to the North and South Pole, in less than seven months.
Now he will lend his expertise to members of Welsh Women Walking, who hope to climb the Himalayan Mountains and reach the 5,400 metre high camp.
