My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My sister Elaine has recruited me to help support her close friends Vicky and Simon whose daughter Alice is terminally ill. They have been inspired to set up this charity to provide breaks and holidays to other seriously ill or terminally ill children in the Lake District. Their work is tireless and truly inspirational...which is how I have ended up joining Elaine and her friends climbing up Kilimanjaro.
