Hi everyone.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

I had a brilliant time on the trek. Thanks so much to everyone who sponsored me.

Have a look at my photos of the day here, and videos here.

This year my fundraising efforts are focussed on raising as much as I can for a brilliant charity - the Love Hope Strength Foundation. LHS was co-founded by Mike Peters, lead singer of The Alarm, who is a cancer survivor. The charity's mission is to raise money for local cancer centres, which it does by trekking to and playing concerts at the highest peaks in the world.

As you may know, I had testicular cancer in 2001-2002. Thankfully, some very clever people knew what to do to save my life. With one in three people getting cancer in their lifetime, this is an issue that affects every family. I am so looking forward to this trek with Mike and loads of other people. I really want to raise as much as possible to strike a blow back at cancer.

You may have noticed my fundraising efforts are getting more dramatic and indeed energetic as time goes on. A few years ago I grew a moustache to raise money. Last year I ran 5K, and now I'm trekking to the top of a 3,560ft mountain!

Thank you so much for considering making a donation. It means a huge amount to me, and to Love Hope Strength.
