Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. This September I will be participating in the Teide Challenge to raise funds for the Atlantic Whale Foundation by trekking up an active volcano!
The AWF (http://www.awf-volunteeringabroad.org/) is an amazing charity that works with whale and dolphin conservation as well as co-ordinating a network of grass root conservation and community projects around the world.
As my first ever solo expedition, I'll be heading out in September to the AWF’s main operating base in Tenerife to volunteer for 3 weeks.
As part of this I am climbing Mount Teide, the third highest volcano in the world, at nearly four thousand metres high it is two and a half times higher than Ben Nevis! It casts the longest shadow in the world and the aim is to reach the summit by sunrise to see this.
This will be the most physically challenging thing I've ever done by far. I’m terrified, excited and highly determined so please show your support by digging deep and donating now!
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
