Episode 128 of The Adventure Podcast features mountaineer, teacher and mountain instructor, Alex Moran. He is the son of the late Martin Moran, who was killed in 2019 whilst climbing the unnamed, unclimbed peak 6477m in the Nanda Devi region in India. The Martin Moran foundation is our full-time charitable partner, and is founded in memory of Martin. This is a deeply honest, personal, and ultimately cathartic conversation for both Alex and Matt.The Martin Moran Foundation is a charitable foundation with a mission to elevate the lives of young people through purpose, passion and powerful experiences in the mountains. The Foundation works with young people aged 16-18 with a keen interest in the outdoors but due to their circumstances, they may face difficulties accessing them. They may belong to an underrepresented group with limited opportunities to explore the mountains, be facing financial barriers to adventure, or have limited family support to pursue these experiences independently. MMF provide fully funded mountain adventure programmes to young people who want to explore the beauty, freedom and value of our natural world. If you would like to get involved, head to the website www.martinmoranfoundation.com where you can nominate a young person for this opportunity, make a donation or fundraise to support their mission.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-adventure-podcast.
