Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!!
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: RP Fighting Blindness 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.

The trek to Everest Base Camp, Nepal will be taking place over a period of 18 days. Over this time I will get to see some amazing views that i know i will never forget. But I am not just going there for the views i'm going to raise money for RP fighting blindness.

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is the name given to a group of inherited diseases of the retina (structure of the eye)  that all lead to a gradual progressive reduction in vision.

BRPS was founded in 1975 by Lynda Cantor and a number of other people with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) The group was concerned at the lack of knowledge about RP in the medical profession, and the lack of support for people with RP, and decided to do something about it.

So...... after reading this I hope you will be happy to sponsor and support myself and the charity.

Thank you xx
