Australia’s 15 Highest Peaks In A Day

By Stuart and Paul

We are fundraising to help people of all ages hear, listen and speak!

In January 2026, Paul and Stuart will attempt to climb Australia’s 15 highest peaks in a single day in Kosciuszko National Park. The challenge covers roughly 60 km, over 2,000 m of elevation, and is expected to take around 16 hours, conditions depending.

This challenge aims to raise both funds and awareness for Hear and Say. Stuart and his wife Cass have two sons, Archie and Ollie, who were both born profoundly deaf and can now hear thanks to cochlear implants and the life-changing support of Hear and Say.

The fundraising goal is $15,000... that’s $1000 per mountain! Help them reach their target and support the amazing work that Hear and Say does.

Hi Stuart glad to give to this. I must admit that it has been your posts and this years theme of Wycliffe at the NTE AFES gathering in Canberra which was about Scriptures for the deaf, that has raised my awareness of difficulties for the deaf. Blessings
