Firstly thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page, your time and generosity are both deeply appreciated and will make an immeasurable difference to the lives of those they benefit.

For those who know nothing of my expedition and its causes: In April of this year I will be undertaking an arduous 16 day trek through the Annapurna mountains of Nepal. The expedition will raise money to purchase and construct a library for a local and remote school in the Annapurna district.

Equally, and sadly, we have friends who lost their only child, Nicola, to a rare and aggresive form of cancer, and have formed a charity for low income families who have children with terminal conditions. The charity has been running for over three years, and provides valubale support for families in highly financially and emotionally compromised situations, during the final months and weeks with their child.

Through this page you have the opportunity to make a donation directly to Nicola's Fund and give invaluable support to those in need.

Thanks again for your valubale time and boundless generosity.

Harry Coan.
