Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Inspired by Captain Tom, Leah & Murray asked what they could do.  We are fortunate to live so close to the Pentland Hills, we can go up the hill Caerketton for our daily exercise.  The kids have committed to go up the 300m ascent every day until they have scaled the height of Everest at 8848m, which will take 30 days. 

We chose to support AgeScotland as vulnerable older people really need extra support at the moment during the Covid19 crisis.  They can't go out to their community activities, can't have visitors right now, and might not have the technology to keep in touch.  AgeScotland are supporting them and keeping in touch providing vital information and communication.  We also want to ensure they have funding to continue their good work after this crisis is behind us. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
