Paul Braithwaite Talk Night

Paul Braithwaite, famous Everest climber, will be delivering a presentation on Friday 18th March, starting at 7.30pm at Millgates Arts Centre, Delph, Saddleworth, Oldham.

For anyone who doesn't know, Paul (also known as Tut), was a member of Chris Bonningtons successfull 1975 'Everest the Hard Way' expedition to conquer a new route up to the summit of Everest. Paul, along with Nick Estcourt, solved the problem of the the highly technical and difficult 'Rock Band' which allowed the team to make a successfull summit attempt. In addition Paul holds many other first ascents to his name both in the UK and around the world.

This will be rare opportunity to listen to Paul, who normarly keeps a low-profile, and to what I'm sure will be a fascinating presentation.
