In October folks, we are planning to head to Nepal to set off on a new challenge heading to the world's largest and spectacular mountain range, the Himalayas, to take part in a gruelling 13 day trek to Everest Base Camp.

We will be ascending to dizzying heights of 5,545m hoping that our bodies can keep up and altitude sickness does not take hold! Some days we will be walking for up to 10 hours continuously ascending through forests, villages and glaciers. Some may say we're adventurous, some may just say we're crazy!

This trip is self funded and although we hope to have some fun, we aim to raise money for such an important cause.

Climb Your Mountain is a charity that was started in 2008 by Charlie. It focuses on 'helping people climb their own personal mountain'. Working with young people and children with disabilities, giving them the opportunity to take part in outdoor activities.

I, Amie, have a personal insight into what it is like to live everyday as a challenge and how restricting a disability can be, so to give children and young people the opportunity to challenge themselves to show what they are capable of and hopefully let them have some fun in the great outdoors that most take for granted, is such a worthwhile cause.

I, Michael, have climbed Mount Kilimanjaro in the past because I wanted the adventure and well simply because I could. I felt this was a challenge and an amazing adventure but I would like everyone to be able to have their own adventures and opportunities. I climbed my mountain so I want to help others climb theirs.

We would love and appreciate the help from all you lovely people in raising £1,000 for this amazing charity. We know that it is an ask but every penny really does help so even if it is a couple of pounds that is amazing and we thank you. Please share this with friends and family and let's give these young people an amazing experience.
