<p>I was on a routine foot patrol in Afganistan in 2007 with C Coy 40 Commando Royal Marines, where I was giving Cover with colleagues when suddenly we got Ambushed and under Heavy fire two of my Colleagues and myself all got shot, On jumping into cover off the roof I sustained a open disloaction to my ankle.</p>
<p>Since that fatal day I have had no end of support from the Royal Marines and Charitys such as Help For Heroes and I would Love to give something back.</p>
<p>My injury is a mear scratch to some of the Brave that return to this Country after being injured and only when you see it first hand you realise how much The charity does.</p>

<p class="ecxMsoNormal">As you may know in 2010 I climbed Everest BC which has made me hungry for more, so on the 18th Oct a small team and Myself will be climbing the highest freestanding mountain in the world, Kilimanjaro is also the highest mountain on the African continent at 5896m. Its snow-capped summit rises high above the dusty African plains; huge permanent glaciers flow down from the summit, spectacular views and beautiful ice formations are the reward for pushing your limits both physically and mentally.</p>
