My story

** PLEASE NOTE MY CHALLENGE HAS REGRETTABLY BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL MAY 2010 - STILL IT GIVES ME MORE TIME TO RAISE MONEY AND TRAIN !!! **

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

In September I'm off to Borneo to do "The Ultimate Challenge" and am aiming to raise much needed funds for Noah's Ark Children's Hospice.

This triathlon style challenge involves a 2 day trek to the summit of Mount Kinabalu, the highest mountain in South East Asia at 4, 095m. I then have a challenging 170km cycle ride over 2 days through the Crocker Mountain Range. And if I survive that, I then have to endure a white knuckle ride and raft down the rapids of the Padas River.

Anyone who knows me wil be only too aware that I usually spend my weekends lazing around, sleeping, having my nails done/being pampered, shopping for fabulous shoes and watching quality programmes on TV such as The X Factor and Dancing on Ice so this is going to be a HUGE physical challenge for me and I really need your support (and Noah's Ark really needs your dosh) !!

I'm paying for the trip myself out of the meagre salary the NHS pays me so ALL money donated will go straight to Noah's Ark and you will not be contributing to my holiday (not that I consider this a holiday by any stretch of the imagination !!).

For more information on Noah's Ark, please visit their website at www.noahsarkhospice.org.uk

Further details and the itinerary of my trip can be founnd at www.globaladventurechallenges.com

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Noah's Ark - The Children's Hospice 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!
