Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My challenge is to climb all the mountains in Wales over 2000ft (190, according to Nuttall) over the next year or so.

My wife contracted ME in the late 1990s and has been unable to work since then. Her promising career in biological research was cruelly cut short and she has been virtually housebound ever since. Her daily struggle to remain cheerful in spite of this debilitating illness is a constant reminder to me of her courage. What is the struggle of climbing a few mountains compared to this?

I will be keeping you up to date with my progress as time goes by, but please feel free to give at any time. A penny a peak is £1.90, ten pence a peak is £19 - and that's easy to round up to a neat £20! 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
