An Evening with Jo Bradshaw: More Than A Mountain

Join us at Abbey Mill for an inspiring evening with Everest summiteer and expedition leader, Jo Bradshaw.

In collaboration with Winchester Walkabout Group, we'll be hosting a screening of More Than A Mountain, a powerful film celebrating the life and legacy of Junko Tabei, the first woman to summit Mount Everest.

Fifty years on from this remarkable achievement, the film explores why her story still matters today and how her determination continues to inspire generations around the world.

The evening will conclude with a live Q&A with Jo Bradshaw, who will be sharing stories from her recent return from Nepal and her experience taking part in the Everest Marathon.

Whether you're passionate about adventure, fascinated by extraordinary human stories or simply looking for an inspiring evening in the heart of Winchester, everyone is welcome.
