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.
