My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

What a race!! Billed as the toughest race on earth - how right they were! In total we spent 21 days on the ice and completed the race in 13 days and 12 hours, finishing in 4th place.
It was an amazing experience with incredible highs and lows as we ski-ed the 320 nautical miles from Resolute. One of the motivations to keep me going was the knowledge that I was raising money for 2 excellent causes.

Please dig deep and sponsor me online for Winston's Wish and the Derby Mountain Rescue Team (Charity no. 1089237).
Winston's Wish will receive 70% of all money raised, the rest going to help fund the valuable work of the Mountain Rescue Team.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Winston's Wish and DMRT will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. So please sponsor me now (and tell all your friends!) Many thanks for your support. Vicky
