Adaptive GrandSlam (AGS) is an organisation designed specifically to challenge and support members of the disabled community. Its charismatic and determined leader, Martin Hewitt, believes that if a person “has support, drive and determination that a debilitating injury should not stop them from achieving their goals”.
AGS challenges are designed in the outdoors to inspire and motivate. There are entry-level challenges and a whole range of activities through to dramatic expeditions to the toughest peaks on earth. Each is attacked with the same camaraderie and care. That’s why Ramble Worldwide Outdoor Trust decided to partner with AGS, whose participants are often - but not solely - those injured in the service of their country, to support 20 people to take part in their Cumbria Challenges of 2023 and 2024.
Peter Edgerton, Ramble Worldwide Outdoor Trust Trustee, summed up the partnership when he said: “The work of AGS in offering the opportunity for people with disabilities to access the outdoors resonates strongly with the Ramble Worldwide Outdoor Trust. We are proud to play our part in providing funding to help people achieve things they might not be able to achieve themselves. People from all walks of life can achieve extraordinary things given the opportunity. Challenges run by AGS create opportunities to overcome physical and mental challenges that can be life changing”.
