Mr Garton was also featured in the Liverpool Metro. The article reads....
A climber paralysed from the neck down is to ascend Mount Snowdon in a wheelchair. Michael Garton will make his first 'climb' since he fell 37m (120ft) on the tallest vertical rock face in europe last year. The 25 year old was left paralysed and nearly froze to death after being stuck on a ledge on Troll Wall in Norway for ten hours after his fall. Mr Garton from Riddings, Derbyshire, said: 'I have climbed Snowdon many times before, only this time i will be pulled up in my wheelchair'. He will be helped by a team of hospital staff and friends. He is raising money for the spinal cord injuries charity Back-Up Trust.
