One year after his accident, Jackson managed to climb Mount Snowdon, one of the tallest mountains in the UK, but he didn’t stop there. He went on to climb taller mountains in Europe. While doing so, he raised thousands of dollars through his organization, Millimetres 2 Mountains (M2M), for people facing mental health challenges or physical disabilities. M2M’s aim is to help these people by reconnecting them to nature with hikes and other outdoor activities.
意外满一年后,杰克逊设法登上斯诺登山 ── 英国最高的山之一 ── 但他没有就此停下。他继续攀登欧洲更高的山脉。这么做的同时,他透过他的组织「毫米到山脉」为那些面临心理健康问题或身体残疾的人募得数千美元。「毫米到山脉」的目标是让这些人透过健走和其他户外活动与大自然重新连结,借此帮助他们。
