Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page...

I am participating in a charity trek up Mount Kilimanjaro. This is in aid of GWR children’s charities registered charity number 1091657. I need to raise  a minimum of £2500.00p. Two of the GWR Radio presenters will be coming up Kilimanjaro with us...

The GWR Kids Appeal supports local children who experience poverty, abuse, neglect, homelessness, violence, crime and who have an illness or disability. I am sure you will agree a worthy cause.

I am currently a 23yr old Manager in Marks and Spencer, I have never done anything on this scale before but what a fantastic way to start... the charity does a fantastic job for children in Wiltshire and climbing Kilimanjaro will be an amazing challenge...

I would be delighted if you would support me with a donation.
