About This Opportunity
The Julie Tullis Memorial Award is a small grant to assist deserving female mountaineers or any disabled climbers or mountaineers, both male and female, to achieve their climbing or mountaineering ambitions. Named after Julie Tullis, the first British woman to climb an 8,000m peak who died on K2 in 1986, the award was initiated by the Sandstone Climbing Club as a permanent memorial to her life and achievements. The fund and its associated campground at Harrisons Rocks have been handed over to the British Mountaineering Council for administration. The grant is awarded on an annual basis, with applications reviewed by the BMC International Committee with input from two representatives of the Sandstone Climbing Club, including Chris Tullis, Julie's son.
