The Disabled Adventurer: Project RockClimber

This isn’t solely the first public screening of Project RockClimber at the Royal & Derngate theatre. It is an evening of conversation, community, inspirational stories and the outlining of Nick’s vision, for improving accessibility and making the outdoors accessible for all across Northamptonshire, and who knows, maybe even across the UK! So, if you want to be inspired by stories of human resilience, motivated by the never give up mentality, enthused by community spirit and want to be excited by a bold vision or simply want to be around lovely people. Join us and see what it’s all about.

Witness the thrilling journey of how an extreme all-terrain mobility chair, called RockClimber, came about and of Army Veteran and Disability Advocate, Nick Wilson‘s determination to complete a solo ascent of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon). Whether you’re disabled yourself, work with or support people with disabilities, or simply love the outdoors and stories of human resilience, this is a film that will stay with you.

After the showing, Nick will be speaking to special guest and friend, Peter Keil, who’s 12yr old son Jude suddenly became incredibly ill, resulting in his being on a ventilator and spending 1yr in hospital. Peter will be speaking publicly for the very first time, about the adventures he goes on with Jude, how the family have adjusted to their new lives and why the work Nick is doing in the outdoors and adventuring, has helped and is so important to them all.
