B
I was born with bad eyesight. At high school I couldn’t read the blackboard. By the time I got
to the university of Bath to study Chemistry it had got to the point where I couldn’t really see
images at all, only the difference between light and dark. And a few years later, once I was in the
first year of my PhD, I was almost completely blind.
But climbing is my great passion. I started climbing when I was young. My dad taught me
everything about climbing. When I was 11, I led my first climbing route outside. People are
usually amazed when they discover that not only do I climb, but I also lead climbs.
At university I joined the Mountaineering Club and was able to climb much more frequently.
We had regular trips to indoor walls and weekends away outdoors. I developed a great circle of
climbing friends and went on several trips to Europe. After these I started Alpine climbing and ice
climbing, too.
When my sight dropped to a level where I could no longer read, I thought I might have to
give up leading. But I never thought I would stop climbing. I just learnt to adapt with the support
of my friends.
People often ask me, “Why rock climbing? It doesn’t seem like a good activity for a blind
person.”
But when I think about the danger, crossing the road is far more dangerous, and also, it’s
something where I’m not in control.
It’s quite possible that I wouldn’t be such a good climber if I weren’t blind. If I didn’t have
these challenges, it wouldn’t focus me. That determination is built through my disability.
