Earl Mountbatten Hospice - Everest Basecamp Climb · 27 March 2009

Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

In March 2010 I will be flying to Nepal to climb up to Everest Base Camp. The camp is about the same height as Kilimanjaro so I can again look forward to altitude sickness, blisters and freezing cold! So why do it?

I want to raise money for the Earl Mountbatten Hospice. The hospice provides amazing care for people who have been given a life limiting diagnosis.

As with all charities at the present time, they too are feeling the credit crunch and really need your support to keep going. The money that is raised will go towards buying much needed medical equipment.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Earl Mountbatten Hospice 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, as ever, for your support

Will

PS I can confirm that Cheryl Cole has agreed to carry my rucksack for me :O)
