In May I will attempt to trek, at high altitude, for 150 miles across the Mexican mountains. Every foot of the mountains I climb, every blister I get, every shallow breath I puff, and every degree below zero I endure in my sleeping bag will be worth all the pain as I am doing it in aid of Children in Crisis (registerd charity no. 1020488).

Despite all my physical and mental training (!) the biggest challenge seems to be getting people to part with their cash in aid of this very good cause. Please don't feel obliged, but if at all possible I would really appreciate it if you could make some donation to help Children In Crisis carry on with their good work.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Children in Crisis 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!
