Jason Black event now open for booking

An inspiring talk from Everest mountaineer Jason Black, presented by the Letterkenny Lions. “From rock bottom to the top of the world” is a special event that will see Jason open up to an audience for the first time about his life-changing journey which culminated in him reaching the summit of Everest on May 19 2013.
