Luke O'Neill is our guest host this week on The Anton Savage show and is joined by Ed Jackson, a former professional rugby player whose life took an unexpected turn after a spinal injury left him with a significant disability.

Ed’s journey from the rugby field to the mountains is a testament to his resilience and hope. Ed shares his gripping story of recovery, climbing the heights of Snowdon and embarking on thrilling mountaineering adventures, including an expedition to Nepal.

He discusses his upcoming mission to ascend an unnamed peak in Kyrgyzstan, hoping to make history while raising awareness for his charity, Millimetres 2 Mountains.

This is an uplifting conversation about overcoming challenges, the power of support, and the healing journey through adventure!
