Raising money for

Moving Mountains

Charity Registration No. XR62512

Moving Mountains is a principled, well run charity which has its overheads covered by Adventure Alternative. It has fully operational, dedicated NGO's in Nepal and Kenya run by teams of local Trustees who have now been with us for over ten years. In Kenya we build, renovate and run orphanages, rescue centres, schools and clinics. We support street kids and their families with a complete, long term strategy of relevant developmental aid which links in with other local self-help organisations and is really successful! In Nepal we have built a hydro-electric power station high in the Himalayas, two monasteries and a school, and we support children with their education. We have also enabled adults to become self-sufficient through income-generating businesses and created a model green village. We make a point of inviting people to come out and help our work, and we now have nearly fifteen years of solid experience behind us. We are registered in Northern Ireland and accepted as a charity by the Inland Revenue under reference XR62512. www.movingmountains.org.uk

My story

This Year, I am planning to climb Mount Everest for the third time to raise funds to build -
a hydro electric scheme in Nepal
a childrens hospital in a slum in Nairobi
a childrens home in western Kenya

You can help by sponsoring me or by coming on one of the support treks to Base Camp - contact me on office@adventurealternative.com All funds raised go directly to Moving Mountains and not the climb.

I have stood 100 metres from the summit twice now, from each side of the mountain ! So this is third time lucky ! This time I am going alone, without bottled oxygen and without Sherpa support.

Moving Mountains is a charity I started so I could use my expeditions around the world to raise money for street kids in Kenya, where I also live, and for communities in Nepal. We are based in N. Ireland and we have 6 Trustees.
Please help me climb Everest and help me move mountains for many kids who really need the help. Thank you! Gavin
