Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Yes i'm off to trek to the base camp of the world's highest mountain. It will take me through the valleys of Sagarmatha National Park, exploring its villages and monasteries and looking for a pet Yeti along the way lol.

Then i will be in the Nepalese Himalayas where eight of the world's fourteen peaks that exceed 8,000m. With the highest of them all, standing at 8,848m, is Mt. Everest. Ill be treking roughly 5,000 meters up to the base camp.

Training and fundraising is going to be an interesting challenge I have already used £500 of my own money to make this happen and thaks to kind others the cost of this expadition has already been met so any money donated will go straight to Cancer Research UK.

So why do this seemingly crazy thing - well I know the devestation cancer can cause to wehter the out come is good or bad. I know that Cancer Research offers alot of support to anyone having to go through this ordeal and working towards making it a thing of the past.

So please do dig deep even if its only a few pounds.

Keep an eye out for my events by wathcing this space. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cancer Research UK 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!

Many thanks for your support.
