Story

<p>WE MADE IT!!!!</p> <p>After an amazing but arduous week Matt and I both managed to make the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro at approx 6.20am Thursday 1st March.</p> <p>A massive thank you to everyone who supported us and all the fundraising achieved for the Help for Heroes charity.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Matt and I are attempting to summit Mount Kilimanjaro, at 5,893m / 19,334ft the highest peak in Africa, on the 24th February 2012.&nbsp;</p> <p>We are&nbsp;raising funds&nbsp;in aid of&nbsp;the 'Rugby for Heroes' charity. A charity that Matt and I can relate&nbsp;closely to after a long association with the sport and Matt's backgroung in the Armed Forces. The charity provides invaluable support and opportunity to many&nbsp;ex-servicemen and women&nbsp;who have put their lives on the line for their country.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>I thank you for all&nbsp;donations and just hope we can do the challenge justice!</p>
