We’re pleased to be supporting Torsten Gill a determined six-year-old preparing to tackle Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the UK, to raise money for the charity The Hideway.
Torsten was inspired to take on this walk after he successfully climbed Snowdon – the highest mountain in Wales – at just four years old for the Royal Manchester Children’s Hospital, where he raised over £800.
Our very own Steve Gill, Directer at BDI, is Torsten’s Dad so is doing the walk with him and is getting used to it now, as this remarkable youngster has done a fundraiser every year since lockdown. When his school helped raise money for food banks, and Torsten helped raise £400 by challenging himself to do over 100 roly-polies, he later raised around £1,000 during the children’s Great Manchester Run.
