My Everest – Film Screening

A physically disabled man takes on Everest to prove his self-worth, yet when the mountain takes its toll on his body, he is forced to question how far he’s willing to go to seek social acceptance.

My Everest is the story of Max Stainton-Parfitt, and his wonderful support circle, as he takes on the challenge of getting to the Mount Everest base camp on horseback. Max lives with severe cerebral palsy. His effort to get to base camp will be raising was to raise funds for the Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA), in the hopes that people like Max can benefit from learning to ride.

Running time: 1 hour 26 minutes

Refreshments will be available for purchase with all proceeds going to the Cavalier Centre.
