My story

At the beginning of this year I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer. Fortunately following successful treatment I am now well on the road to full recovery. During this journey I have received fantastic support from my wife, family, friends and colleagues. In addition I have relied upon a number of charity organisations primarily The Prostate Cancer Charity and Prostate UK. It is now pay back time and with your help I would like to raise lots of money by climbing Mount Everest. Unfortunately logistics prevent me from travelling to Nepal so I will climb the equivalent height by ascending the Rock of Gibraltar no less than 21 times. I plan to do this during the latter part of October and early November and would be extremely grateful for any support, through sponsorship, that you felt able to offer. Due to a technicality I have had to create 2 pages, one for each charity, so feel free to use either or both. I can assure you that both charities do fantastic work in both the areas or research and support and every penny will be used wisely.

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: The Prostate Cancer Charity 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 me now!
