<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 13.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Aharoni;"><span style="font-family: Bembo;">On the <strong>19 </strong>and <strong>20 of March</strong>, Tilly’s will be attempting to climb the three highest peaks in the world in a mere <strong>20 hours</strong>. The aim of the climb is to raise money for <strong><span style="color: #008080;">Footsteps</span></strong> and the Sub-Saharan Children's Hope Trust<strong><span style="color: #008080;"> </span></strong>(<a href="http://www.subsaharanchildrenshope.org">www.subsaharanchildrenshope.org</a>). We will be climbing the combined height of <strong>Everest, K2 and Kanchenjunga </strong>and this epic Himalayan assault will be achieved by climbing up the Tilly’s main staircase repeatedly in a continuous relay.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The total height is <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>26,047 metres</strong></span><strong>,</strong> which equates to <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>2236 times </strong></span>up the six flights of stairs! This will be shared amongst the boys working in shifts and I’m sure that, as well as raising money, this will provide a good team-building experience for the House. </span></span></p>

The <strong>Sub-Saharan Children's Hope Trust </strong>is run by <strong>Mr Henry Chitsenga and African Children's Fund </strong>to support orphans in Zimbabwe.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>£4000 </strong></span>we could dig a “Tilly’s Borehole” to supply <strong>Mt Dangare Primary School</strong> (in Zimbabwe) and the community around it with clean fresh water and water to irrigate their school vegetable garden. A further <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">£3000 </span></strong>would build a new classroom in Kenya. There will be prizes for the top fund-raiser and highest climbers. </span></span></p>
