Ci sono due bambini e una tenda. Fuori, il temporale rimbomba nella valle. Quale sia la valle non importa, basta che sopra i loro cappucci non ci sia solo cielo. Cresciuti tra le rocce, spinti a spostarsi come lupi tra gli altipiani, abituati a osservare la madre che caccia e il padre che ne fiuta le tracce. Non la lascia mai, non si lasciano, vivono incollati i capibranco. Solo che lei ama salire in alto, molto in alto. La pioggia li colpisce, il vento li raffredda. Le scarpe hanno cambiato colore, il fango le avvolge come gusci di noce. Gli steli d'erba si appiccicano alle tomaie, le spighette non si vedono più. Le suole pesano, si fondono col terreno e quasi non si staccano. Tornano alla tenda sudici, fradici, inzuppati da un pomeriggio che non ha mai concesso tregua. Tom e Kate Ballard sono ancora bambini quando entrano in contatto con il mondo alpinistico. Sono loro, il padre Jim e la madre Alison Hargreaves.Contatto mail: andataeritorno.podcast@gmail.comSito e blog: https://www.quotastories.comNewsletter: https://andataeritornopodcast.substack.com/Music by Epidemic Sound & Music Hub

On this episode we hear from Alison. She got sucked in both into hospitality and London. She went to Cornell to study hotel management, came to London after graduating and basically never left. She was fascinated by the multi-cultural people that are drawn into this industry. She started with IHG, few years with consulting before joining ownership group Archer Hotel Capital, where she has been 16 years now. And this might have come to pass had her boss at the time not shown her some flexibility when she felt she needed to take a step back after having children. This is the positive kind of examples I hope to see more of across our industry. Throughout the rest of her career, she adjusted her role not only based on her personal circumstances but also with the cycles of the industry. We both agreed that a lot of our learnings come from time and experience, and we just must go through them.

Alison Hargreaves rappresenta il binomio "donna-montagna".Un accostamento molto spesso discusso e criticato.Soprattutto quando entrano in scena eventuali figli e dinamiche familiari.Ecco che la donna si trasforma in madre, e lì - molto spesso - rimane.Non viene concessa la possibilità che una mamma sia attratta anche da altro.Da quelle passioni impossibili da contenere.Perché fermarsi, significherebbe limitarsi.Proprio per questi motivi le donne, che come Alison hanno scelto di amare sia la famiglia che altro, sono ingombranti. Hanno il potere e il fascino di scardinare gli stereotipi.E nel caso dovessero cadere, vittime delle variabili che caratterizzano le loro passioni, costituiscono dei bersagli fin troppo facili.Vengono attaccate, smontate e distrutte.Ridotte ad irresponsabili, perché a casa - dai loro familiari - non ci torneranno più.Lasciando orfani i figli, vedovi i mariti, svuotati genitori e amici.La storia di Alison Hargreaves s'intreccia con quella di suo figlio Tom Ballard e del suo compagno di cordata Daniele Nardi.Quest'ultimo vittima di una stampa infuocata, come lo fu Alison.Entrambi morti mentre rincorrevano i loro sogni.Contatto mail: andataeritorno.podcast@gmail.comMusic by Epidemic Sound

THE LAST MOUNTAIN  chronicles Tom Ballard, a British rock climber, alpinist and the son of mountaineer Alison Hargreaves, who perished on K2 in 1995. Mother and son, two of the greatest climbers of all time, died at almost the same age, in the same mountain range, both doing what they loved best. Directed by Emmy award-winner Chris Terrill and produced by BAFTA award winner Olivia Lichtenstein, THE LAST MOUNTAIN  follows Kate Ballard on an emotional journey to say goodbye to her brother on Nanga Parbat. Using archive footage from 1995 and Tom's own extraordinary footage taken up until the days before his death, the film explores what made Tom continue his ascent with Italian climber Daniele Nardi after the other two members of the expedition turned back. Combining years of intimate, unseen family archive with footage of the family that director, Chris Terrill, has shot in the years since Alison's passing, the documentary tells the unforgettable story of a family who lived - and were prepared to die - for the love of scaling the icy heights of the world's highest peaks, and explore what it is that drives people to pit themselves against nature at its most ferocious and unforgiving. THE LAST MOUNTAIN features revealing interviews with those left behind, among them: Alison's widower, Jim Ballard, Tom's sister, Kate, Stefy, Tom's girlfriend, Karim Hayat, who left the expedition stating he 'did not want to lose [his] life there,' and Alex Txikon who led the search for Tom and Daniele and found their bodies. Director Christopher Terrell and Producer Olivia Lichtenstein join us for a moving conversation on the dynamics of a family enthralled by the mystery and the danger of the earth's most forbidding peaks and their own personal journey chronicling the enthralling saga of a caring and loving family willing to risk everything. THE LAST MOUNTAIN will be released in the U.S. on Digital and on Demand from March 15, 2022. 

Scot Kate Ballard is the daughter of world-famous mountaineer Alison Hargreaves. In 1995, when Kate was just four, Alison was caught in a storm on K2 in the Himalayas and died. Despite the tragedy, Kate and her brother Tom were raised by their dad to love the slopes and it soon became clear that Tom shared his mother's climbing talent. But sadly he would also share her fate. Kate speaks to Jo Fidgen about travel to the Himalayas and how, despite her personal losses, her love of the mountains is undiminished. A film about the family is called The Last Mountain. It's by director Chris Terrill and is available to watch on BBC iPlayer.

It's so fantastic to be a photographer in a time when same sex marriage is legally recognised. However, the wedding industry can still be a little behind when it comes to inclusivity and catering to the needs of LGBTQ couples.  In this episode I chat with Alison Hargreaves from Pride Guide (an online LGBTQ wedding directory and information hub) about how to find the perfect suppliers for your wedding. 

Whether money is no object or you are planning a wedding on a bit of a budget, getting value for money is something we all seek when searching for the perfect suppliers.  In this episode, I chat to Alison Hargreaves to bring you tips and advice on getting the best from your wedding budget. Alison is the Managing Director of guidesforbrides.co.uk and (as predicted) was a font of all knowledge on this topic.  I learned a lot and I'm sure you will all find it invaluable. 

The Olympic rower Helen Glover is Matthew Parris' guest this week, choosing the life of the mountaineer Alison Hargreaves to discuss with the help of her biographer Ed Douglas. Alison Hargreaves' short life was defined by her love of the mountains. She became interested in climbing as a teenager and devoted her life to pursuing ever greater challenges. She was the first woman to climb Mount Everest without oxygen and unsupported before losing her life on the infamous K2 mountain in Pakistan in 1995. Producer: Maggie Ayre.

Welcome to episode 6 of the Further. Faster. Podcast In association with Montane. This is the podcast that takes a deeper look into why, and how, ultra athletes, explorers and mountaineers do what they do. This edition, host Daniel Neilson speaks to Montane athlete and climber Tom Ballard. Tom Ballard is one of Britain's most consummate climbers and has mastered all manner of techniques. Climbing is all he's ever wanted to do - perhaps no surprise given his mother climbed the Eiger while 6 months pregnant with him. He lives largely out of a van and spends his days climbing, and moving on, climbing some more. In this podcast speaking from the Dolomites, Tom opens up about being the first person to climb the six great North Faces of the Alps in a single winter season, a feat his mother Alison Hargreaves completed in summer when Tom was a little boy. He also talks about risk and his preparation for major climbs, as well as his passion for dry tooling. It's an enlightening interview with an extraordinary talent. We hope you enjoy… Listen in.
