I am delighted to have the opportunity to join one of my oldest friends from my volunteering days in Nigeria, to embarke on a unique and exciting adventure to climb Africa's highest mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro. Not only will I be fundrasiing for a cause I believe in but I'll also be ticking one of my personal goals of fitness and endurance!

What's unique about this challenge is that I am not only climbing the highest mountain in Africa but in addition to self-funding the climb I am also doing an additional  trip to Siaya and Bondo Districts in Kenya to see how exactly the money we raise can change peoples lives. When I worked in rural Nigeria many years ago I saw first hand the need for clean water and sanitation and the associated problems for communities that struggle through life using what limited resources they have.

I do hope that you can dig deep and help me to exceed my fundraising target, all the money raised goes direct to the Charity, the Climb is a self-funded challenge. I'll be posting updates here and info about my preperation and challenge on my facebook and twitter page and you can also check out my photo album here Kili Pics.
