My story

Not content merely with climbing one of the world's tallest mountains, the intrepid explorers Christine, Cath, Tori, Julia, Alison and Sarah want to conquer Mount Kilimanjaro in a way never done before...by partaking in the world's highest pole dance.

By maximising Alison's expertise in the pole dancing field and the other girls incessant determination to do something a little different; and by utilising a vast array of technical knowledge from the fields of structual and civil engineering (in order to build a lightweight pole that can be carted up 19,500 feet) the girls plan to use this challenge to raise a ridiculous amount of money for charity and have some fun along the way.

The day they reach the peak is 7th September 2007. They will have taken 6 days to climb to the highest point inAfrica - and to the top of the tallest free standing mountain on Earth. With the pole. Then, in a manner not at all similar to Maria in the Sound of Music, they will wriggle their tushes round it. Simple.

All they ask of you is that you sponsor them. On the downside you'll be a few quid lighter, but on the upside every sponsor will be privvy to exclusive footage of this record breaking feat once the girls have returned. Surely worth a few of the queens finest any day?
