Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In July 2010 I climbed Mount Kilimanjaro with my Dad, to raise money for Teenage Cancer Trust. All my travel and accommodation expenses were paid for privately, so that all the money I collect will go IN FULL to Teenage Cancer Trust.

The trek took me a total of 6 days and we reached the summit of Uhuru at a height of 19,340 ft.

I chose Teenage Cancer Trust because every day 6 teenagers hear the words 'you have cancer'.This is a very emotional and traumatic experience for them. Teenage Cancer Trust  sets up a specialist hospital units for the treatment of young people in the UK. Each unit costs between £500,000 and £3,500,000. Teenage Cancer Trust's plan is to build enough units so that by 2012, every single teenager who is diagnosed with cancer will be treated in one.

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.
