Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In February 2012, I plan to trek solo and unsupported from North to South Iceland at it's widest point. The journey is about 350Km and will have an average temperature below -20 degrees Celsius.

I am supporting the Princess Royal Trust for Carers (www.carers.org) as my wife has been poorly for nearly 5 years and our children have had to support me whilst caring for her.

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.
