 Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Macmillan Cancer Support will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
Myself and my family has benefited from the wonderful support provided by Macmillan Cancer Support. The experience greatly helped us all through the loss of our mother some years ago and more recently my dad.
I wanted to do something really worth while this year and to raise lots of money for this wonderful charity by hiking in the Himalayas. With 59 other fund raisers I will be trekking 124 miles through the Annapurna Massif in Nepal, starting on the 3rd October for 11 days (6 days walkng, the rest will be travelling to and from the start/finish point).
The Annapurna challenge will be my first real walk at altitude, and however fit you are, life at high altitude is incredibly tough. The lack of oxygen at these heights means you can get out of breath after just a few steps. We will be trekking to 3000m above sea level. Camping out overnight, we will be walking up to 9 hours a day.
I have started training - walking, cycling and some gym work. I intend to be ready for the challenge.
I have paid for the cost of the trip myself which means that 100% of all donations will go to the charity..
So please sponsor me now if you can!
Many thanks for your support.
