Story

Everest Base Camp 2017

In November I will be taking on 5,634 meters, in temperatures averaging -17 C over 19 days, contending with altitude sickness, heading to a place that took 19 lives in 2015 when an earthquake struck, but this is nothing compared to the challenges the people I am doing this for have to face. The people that stand up for our rights and protect us so we can live our lives in the safe way that we are used to. On this journey I will have the honour of traveling along side some of these servicemen that will be going through their rehabilitation and seeing first hand where your much needed donations are going and the good that they are doing. So PLEASE dig deep, as they  have done for you
