Climbing at such high altitudes was really tough and he experienced at first hand some of the amazing people that live in the midst of Everest.

Our chosen charity, Plan International, is helping to provide communities in with the foundation they need to earn a living. Every £150 we collect in sponsorship will pay for the vocational training of one vulnerable female who is a victim of, or at risk from human trafficking. Only with a regular income can they protect themselves. With your support, this project can make a difference to the lives of many children, families and communities in .
Any donation, no matter how small, can make a real difference. Please remember to tick the ‘Gift Aid’ box if you are a taxpayer.
