My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In a moment of madness I agreed to join my father-in-law and brother-in-law on a climb of the 3 highest peaks in the UK and we are planning to do it between the 8and 11 of July.

I thought that whilst risking life, limb and lung collapse I would raise money for charity and Cancer Research UK is a cause very close to my heart.

Itinerary

8 July            Drive to Ben Nevis (496 miles)

9 July            Climb Ben Nevis (4409 feet)

                        Drive to Scafell Pike (252 miles)

 10 July          Climb Scafell Pike (3209 feet)

                         Drive to Mount Snowdon (210 miles)

 11 July          Climb Mount Snowdon (3560 feet)

                         Drive home (258 miles)

I hope to be back in the office on 13 July and I will gladly show photos from the summit of every mountain and describe in graphic detail the aches I’ll no doubt be experiencing in previously unknown muscles! Thanks in advance for your support.

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.
