Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This year is my 40th birthday, and being too skint to buy a sports car and have a proper mid-life crisis, I've decided to climb Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon.

I also wanted to do something that could potentially benefit ... YOU !! (although I hope it won't), which is why I've chosen to raise money for the North West Air Ambulance because it was vital in getting my dad to hospital following a serious accident. A regular ambulance was unable to help so the air ambulance flew into action. The team were fantastic and got him to hospital and treatment in a matter of minutes.

Luckily, I have a large family and some great friends who wanted to join me on this charity challenge. We are already in training, with practice runs on several other peaks being planned. We are doing the walk over a weekend in September. I will keep you informed of our progress.

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 to help us reach our target.
