IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF "JT"     WE DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!         Friday 29th May 2009 at 6.12 am we reached the summit of KILI in a snowstorm. Thanks to you all for your kind donations.           

                                                                                    Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.
On the 22nd of May we are travelling to Tanzania to climb 19,341 feet (5,895m) to the top of Mt Kilimanjaro in memory of our son, Lt John "JT" Thornton RM (pictured on the right with the flag of St George).  John made the summit in 2002, aged 17, and now its our turn to follow in his footsteps and to stand where he stood, on the roof of Africa (at a combined age of 113!).

If you would like to find out more about John's Foundation, please see our web site www.jtyaf.org.


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The John Thornton Young Achievers Foundation 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.

Thank you for your support.

Hope you get acclimatised quickly, good luck ! Donation by Mike Bridger on 07/05/09
