Annual Dinner 2026, with speaker Alex Staniforth

The BBRCC Annual Dinner was a great success.

The Princes Arms in Trefriw put on an amazing three course dinner, and as usual everything was delicious. We'd like to say a huge thanks to the staff for being so great throughout the evening.

The speaker was Alex Staniforth - record-breaking adventurer, inspirational keynote speaker, author and founder of mental health charity, Mind Over Mountains. Alex spoke for nearly an hour about his adventures, including surviving two of Everest's recent disasters, and how his 'failures' have actually led to more resilience and has turned adversity into opportunity.

We all agreed he was an amazing speaker and hope we will see more of him in the club.

Osian did his final speech as chairman and handed over to Michael Raymond. We'd like to thank Osian for his many years of service.

Thanks to everyone who came to the 2026 Annual Dinner!
