<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. We have now successfully completed our challenge so all that effort paid off and thanks to all who have donated to date it is really appreciated</p>
<p>Hi there,I took on a climb of Kilimanjaro in September 2011 with my wife Lynn. We had been training for this for 18 months having previously completed the 3 peaks challenge last year in aid of Cancer Research. We have a local charity Troop Aid who provide grab bags for our injured troops returning from the front line. During our training we have covered well in excess of 1000miles of walking and managed to wear out 3 pairs of boots each.We funded this challenge completely so that all donations received will go directly to Troop Aid. Whilst not every one agrees with war our brave lads are just doing their jobs and they didn't choose to get injured. We hope that we can help this worthy cause to make their lives that bit more comfortable as they no doubt will have enough to contend with during their recovery. 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.</p>
<p>So please dig deep and donate now.<strong>The money is still coming in and we have already beaten our target so a big big thank you from us both</strong></p>
