Story

There are only approximately 500 mountain gorillas left in the wild. Their habitat is shrinking and they are poached by humans. Please help me raise some cash to protect the greatest of the apes. (It cost me £100 of my own cash to enter this run so please dig deep!!)

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Gorilla Organization 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.

Many thanks for your support.

Ben

P.S. Facebook users can make this run a little harder for me - I will carry 1 banana for every 100 people that join this Facebook group!!

P.P.S. Anyone running around London in one of the gorilla runs, book a London hotel - you will need some rest after losing half your body weight sweating inside a gorilla suit!!!
