Thank you for getting this far... please dig deep and sponsor me.

If you think you are simply paying for me to go on holiday... don't fret - costs of the 'holiday' part are being covered by me - all your donations will go straight to worthy causes.

Donating through this site is really simple and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: FOCUS ASSISTENCIA HUMANITARIA EUROPE will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Thanks so much - your support will make scrambling up a mountain far far easier!
