Story

I’m thrilled to be part of the ‘Big Dreams Trek’ team, climbing Kilimanjaro for AfriKids.  The challenge:

5895 vertical metres

8 days of trekking

50% less oxygen at the summit than at sea level

20 people

£50,000 for AfriKids

As you may already be aware, I’m an AfriKids obsessive.  The work that our Ghana team achieves on the ground is innovative, locally owned and changes the lives of over 100,000 people.  Every time I go to Ghana our team never fails to impress me with their passion, diligence and delivery. 

The physical, mental and fundraising challenges for the Big Dreams team are huge; I hope that we can draw inspiration from AfriKids Ghana and all make it to the top of Africa.  Not getting altitude sickness would be a cheeky bonus too!

Your support for AfriKids and the Big Dreams Team is very much appreciated.
