Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Claire House Children's Hospice 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.

Our long weekend trek begins in Sicily's famed ancient town of Taormina. From we will head to Mt. Etna, the largest volcano in Europe, standing at about 11,000 feet.

We spend two days trekking 35kms per day and discovering the Pista Altomontana, the circular path around Mt. Etna.  This serves as the warm up for our main challenge (great!) as after the Pista Altomontana you will commence an 8 hour trek take from 1,800m to 2,500m and continue to trek to the top of Mt. Etna at 3350m the following day.

I urge you to look at the web site for my nominated charity, as this really is a wonderful charity in urgent need of help.
