Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

On 20th June 2013, four intrepid professionals (not professional mountaineers by the way!) will attempt to climb the three highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales inside 24 hours.

We were incredibly moved when we heard about the fabulous work that the team at Destination Florida does to change the lives of some very sick children (three of us are fathers to young children) by taking them, plus a full medical team, on the holiday of a lifetime to Florida.

Having seen just how much joy they brought to a group of kids who have had really tough lives as a result of terrible and, in some cases, terminal illness, we made a pledge to help raise the £2,000 needed to take each child on holiday.

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 - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

We know that times are tough but would appreciate any support you're able to give to what is a massively worthwhile cause.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Many thanks from Gary, Richard, Sean and Rik!
