THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE SUPPORTED ME AND YOU CAN STILL CONTINUE TO SPONSOR ME ONLINE

Hello and welcome to my fund raising page.

I am a Emergency Medical Technician and work for the London Ambulance Service NHS Trust.   I am about to do something awsome and I would like you to help me make it possible.

 Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me.  Richard House Trust will receive your money faster and, if you are a taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

 My Challenge: 

 I shall be attempting to climb the three highest peaks in the UK, Ben Nevis, highest mountain in Scotland (& Britain) 1,344m (4,408ft), Scafell Pike, highest mountain in England 978m (3,209ft) and Snowdon, highest mountain in Wales 1,085m (3,560ft).  A total vertical height of 3407m (11,177ft).  I shall be climbing these mountains over a 24 hour period.  Some would say that this is 'sheer madness' to even think about, so I decided to go for it.  This challenge is expected to take approximately 15 hours of combined climbing and walking to complete, with an additional 9 hours of travelling, making this event a logistical challenge.

 I will need as much support and encouragement as possible, and this is were you can help.  I would really appreciate if you click the above (coloured blue) SPONSOR US NOW button and make a donation towards my target, it would also be nice if you also left a word of encouragement for me.

 When:

 Pending weather conditions,  my challenge will commence within a three week window of opportunity.  Either of these weekends*: 

 30th June - 1st July 2007

 7th - 8th July 2007

 14th - 15th July 2007

 Responsibility:

 I shall be making donations to the Mountain Rescue Team's based at all peaks used for our challenge.  These vital organisations are totally relient on donation to sustain their important rescue operations.
