Pakistani top mountaineer, Nazir Sabir, will talk about his achievements in the mountaineering world at a public lecture at the University of Bradford.
From climbing K2 to becoming the first Pakistani to stand on the summit of Everest, Nazir will talk about his expeditions, adventures and experiences on top of the world.
The adventurer will speak at the University on Monday 15 October, 6-7.30pm in a public lecture titled ‘Looking Death in the Eye’.
Bradford born Haroon Rashid, Hon Ambassador Gilgit Baltistan UK and Europe, said: “It is a great privilege to welcome Nazir Sabir, a world class Mountaineer, to our great City of Bradford. We have some spectacular scenery within a few miles from our city centre, we have a great trekking and climbing community in Bradford and I’m sure it will be a thoroughly enjoyable evening listening to Nazir speak on his expeditions.”
Nazir said: “I have accepted the invitation made by the Haroon Rashid as part of my World Tour. I have heard of Bradford's outstanding beauty and am looking forward to my visit to Bradford and the surrounding area. I hope my visit will encourage Bradford’s trekking and mountaineering community to come and visit Gilgit Baltistan, the rooftop of the World.”
