At Lyte Ladders, our history is deeply intertwined with some of the greatest adventures in human history. Our ladders played a crucial role in Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay’s historic ascent of Mount Everest in 1953, helping them cross the treacherous Khumbu Icefall. Before setting off on their legendary journey, they trained in Eryri (Snowdonia), where they honed the skills needed for their successful expedition.
Today, we’re proud to continue this legacy of adventure and exploration by supporting the Mountain Adventure Fund at Plas y Brenin. Our recent donation will sponsor a full class of children, giving them the chance to experience the same rugged landscapes and challenges that once prepared Hillary and Tenzing for their momentous climb.
Through the Mountain Adventure Fund, these young adventurers will embark on a journey that builds confidence, resilience, and a love for the outdoors. By sponsoring their week-long adventure, we’re not only honouring our history but also investing in the future of outdoor exploration.
Lyte Ladders remains committed to supporting initiatives that inspire and empower the next generation. By contributing to the Mountain Adventure Fund, we’re helping ensure that children from all backgrounds have the opportunity to explore, learn, and grow in the great outdoors — just as the pioneers of Everest once did.
