Story

Next summer, August 2012, I will be climbing Mount Kilimanjaro and would really appreciate it if you would sponsor me. I am raising money for Meningitis Research Foundation.

The Meningitis Research Foundation funds research into meningitis and septicaemia. Both these diseases can be fatal and can affect anyone, anywhere,there are around 3000 cases reported in the UK each year! Research into vaccinations is vital in order to stop this. If you would like to read more then please visit their website on the link below:

It will take 6 days to reach the summit, walking up to 15 hours per day. Mount Kilimanjaro is the largest free-standing mountain in the world and is notoriously hard to climb.

I have a fundraising target of £2500. All donations are welcome, there are none too big or too small.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
