Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page which has been set up to collect funds in support of my Kilimanjaro challenge which I shall be climbing in Jun 2013 as the climax of my tripple challenge to conqure the yorkshire 3 peaks followed by the National 3 peaks of Scotland England and Wales and finally Kilimanjaro, climbing a cumulative equivalent of 1 and 1/4 times the hight of Mount Everest raising funds and awareness for the research into treatment and a cure for childhood brain tumours. www.markimark-kili-challenge.com

Did you know that brain tumours are the biggest killing cancers in children, yet the research to find a cure only recieves 0.7% of government funding? No neither did I! It took the tragic death of 10 year old Katy Holmes to bring it to my attention. So I shall climb Mount Kilimanjaro the worlds highest free standing mountain standing at 5985m or 19341 ft above sea leveland in her memory and together with your generous contributions perhaps we can make a small difference and possibly even prevent the death of another small child from this cruel horrible illnes

The Katy Holmes Trust has been set up in memory of our beautiful daughter Katy to find a paediatric brain tumour cure. Brain tumours are the BIGGEST cancer killer of children in the UK and the most poorly funded by Government with only 0.7% given towards research. We aim to fund research ourselves.
