In January 2010 the five unlikely mountaineers on the left will be setting off to attempt to climb Africa's highest peak, Mount Kilimanjaro. The adventure will see us walking for 8 days over treacherous terrain, climbing 5895 metres (and then down again), battling altitude sickness and, most worringly of all, sharing tents....
All of this from 5 people who struggle to climb the stairs to the 4th floor at work.
The reason for the madness is to raise some money for those incredible people at Macmillan. They are our corporate charity and our lovely bosses at Capita will do their bit by partially matching every penny we raise.
The target is massive but we really hope that, with your help, we can get there. Please give as much as you can....and we promise to get out of the pub, into the gym and up that mountain.
Thank you from the bottom of our walking boots.
