My Mt Kilimanjaro climb is for very personal reasons....I want to do something challenging but definitely not keen on jumping out of perfectly good aeroplanes, bung-jumping and the like!  After making my mind up to climb Kilimanjaro my daughter, Suzy (21),  asked if she could join me...so its a family affair now and there can be no backing out now!

I predominantly support 3 charities, Cancer Research, The British Heart Foundation (I do the London to Brighton ride each year) and the Merchant Navy Fund (I donate regularly).  Climbing Kilimanjaro is an opportunity to broaden my support by raising sponsorship.  I am 100% self-funded so all donations and sponsorships will go to the Merchant Navy Fund.  Follow the link for more information http://www.merchantnavyfund.org/. 

Please help me reach my target by giving generously.  Thank you, Andrew
