Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The Kilimanjaro climb is over.  Sadly I did not make the summit, I was beaten by the altitude and had to stop at 4700m.  However the experience was amazing and I proved to myself that I am pretty fit for my age.  My two sons, Guy and Adrian, did make it to the summit.

I am supporting the National Society for Epilepsy.

Epilepsy is the most common serious neurological condition in the UK and possibly the world.  One in every 131 people in the UK has epilepsy.  This means that there are at least 456,000 people with epilepsy in the UK.  Epilepsy is more common in children and people over 65, but anyone can develop epilepsy; it happens in all ages, races and social classes.

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.
