<p>On 10th April, I will be&nbsp;setting off on&nbsp;a 10 day trek to Mount Everest Base Camp (5,400 metres) to raise money for NBFA, a charity that&nbsp; helps support&nbsp;old&nbsp;people in the UK, living&nbsp;on the poverty line.</p> <p>NBFA provides them with much needed breaks-away in the UK (either day-trips or weekends away to the&nbsp;seaside)&nbsp;-&nbsp;some&nbsp;have not been away from their home for years&nbsp;and many&nbsp;live alone and speak to no one on a regular basis.&nbsp;</p> <p>Every penny I raise will go directly to NBFA (I will be covering the cost of&nbsp;my entire trek) - and given NBFA receives no government funding, every penny really does count!</p> <p>Thank you so much and please do&nbsp;help me support this&nbsp;really amazing charity!</p> <p><a href="http://nbfa.org.uk/">http://nbfa.org.uk/</a></p> <p>Pat</p>
