Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page
And thank you in advance for your generous donation.

I'll be making my third attempt to summit Mount Everest in April 2016. I took the plain packaging campaign to 7400metres on my last attempt and this has now been approved at Government level. I represented Cancer Research in Parliament in 2012.

My previous two attempts were : 2010 I made it to camp 2, 2012 I made it to the Lhotse face. They say third time lucky! I'm in good company as Hillary Bonnington and Ranulph all had three attempts.

I'm raising vital funds for CRUK. let's beat cancer!

25 years ago I lost my mum to cancer in my final year at University. It's devastating. Not only to the person affected but the legacy continues. My kids are missing out on one of their grandmothers loves!

So far I've raised sixty three thousand pounds help me make it to a hundred thousand.

Cancer can be beaten we just all need to work together.

I'm funding my own climb so every penny you donate will go straight to CRUK for vital research work.
Come on help me fulfil my dream to summit Everest and also raise a Hundred Thousand pounds for Cancer Research Uk.
