My story

 
We have successfully reached the summit of Mt Kilimanjaro on the Charities first birthday, the 18th December 2009. Stage two of the Tri-Country Triathlon will see Sim and I running the NYC marathon on the 1st November 2009. This will be the biggest challenge for us, neither of us have run a marathon before (we have not even done a 1/2 marathon!!!) and we move to Botswana in September and will be living in the bush, where the one thing you cannot do is RUN. So we are having to be ingenious about our training, and whilst we would love to set a good time, we aim to finish in one piece!!!

Our summit of Kilimanjaro saw us raise 19% of our £10,000 target, to enable us to buy a new 4x4 for the research, which is much needed.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Elephants For Africa gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now!
