Story

Kilimanjaro….mission accomplished! I’ve successfully climbed the highest mountain in Africa! Woop woop! I would like to say a BIG thank you to everyone who supported and sponsored me; it would not have possible without you.

 For those of you who don’t know, I am raising money in memory of my brother Liam Elms, who was a Corporal in the Royal Marines. Liam was killed in action by an explosion on New Years Eve 2008, while serving in Afghanistan. Liam also saw active service in Northern Ireland in 2002 and Iraq 2003. I am obviously very proud of my brother and therefore wanted to do something memorable to make him proud, and to keep his name alive.  Any donations are truly appreciated and will be my driving force behind my challenges. 

 

Thank you in anticipation for your support.
