We are raising funds for Tesco Bank Edinburgh Charity of the Year Place2Be. This is a great charity and we are proud to do our bit.

It may not be Everest but then again we are not Edmund Hillary, Tenzing Norgay or Junko Tabei.

We will be hiking over 250 metres and although Arthur's Seat is not a Munro it is a Marilyn!

It would be fantastic if you could donate to the charity to support this band of Sherpas on their expedition.

Thanks for your generosity, Kevin Coll, Kate Frankish, David Henderson, Jen Lake, Pauline Nicol, Keith Raw, David Sinclair and Dave Tickle.
