Manchester Arena survivor plans to climb Mount Kilimanjaro for charity
A father who was paralysed in the Manchester Arena bombing is preparing to climb Mount Kilimanjaro to raise money for others with spinal injuries. Martin Hibbert, 44, was paralysed from the waist down when he and his teenage daughter were among the hundreds injured in the terror attack on May 22 2017. He is now planning to take a Paralympic torch from the London Games to the top of Africa’s highest mountain in September and hopes to raise £1 million for the Spinal Injuries Association. Mr Hibbert said: “I want to turn an appalling act of terror into a force for greater good.”
