Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  I climbed Kilimanjaro in September for the charity Myeloma UK. Kilimanjaro is the tallest mountain in Africa, it's summit is 5,895 metres / 19,341 feet high.

Myeloma UK is the only charity dealing exclusively with myeloma & its related disorders, this charity is very close to  my heart, as some people are aware, my Mum was diagnosed with this cancer of the bone marrow which there is currently no cure for, at the beginning of 2009 and at the beginning of 2010, we got the fantastic news she is now in remission!! It will be only temporary, but it's still remission! She is being such a fighter and because of that, I would like to something good for this charity.  Every penny I raise towards this counts, I would really appreciate any donation.

This was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life, physically, mentally and emotionally, it was life changing and I don't regret the blood, sweat and tears as I'm over the moon to be able to say I made it to the top for Myeloma UK.

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.
