Hello!

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

The fact you're here hopefully means you've agreed to sponsor me on my somewhat foolhardy journey. Remember, I'm covering all the costs of this trip so every penny you donate goes directly to the charity!

I want and more importantly, need your help! I want to try and raise a total of £8,000 in quite a short space of time. Having got as much sponsorship as I can will help give me the drive to push on where otherwise I might give in. In the dark, in freezing temperatures, both physically and mentally exhausted, knowing that I've got so many people helping me and putting their hands in their pockets will enable me to find reserves of strength and will power that I didn't know I had.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Voluntary Service Overseas 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.

Many thanks for your support.

Robert
