Story

On 17th September we will be facing our biggest challenge as we set off to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. Taking the Lemosho route we will be hiking for 8 days to reach the summit to raise funds for Wallace & Gromit's Children's Foundation, helping sick children in local hospitals and hospices across the UK.  

- Every 30 minutes a child in the UK is admitted into hospital for intensive care

- Everyday 26,000 children are cared for in hospital 

- Everyday 2,000 children and their families receive end of life care in a hospice

It costs £1 per minute to care for a child in intensive care and £2 per minute to keep a child on life support , so please help us by making this your minute to make a difference.
