On 4th February 2011 I set off to Tanzania to climb Mount Kilimanjaro in support of Comrades of Children Overseas (COCO).

I am pleased to confirm that on 11th February I reached the summit of Kili. I would like to thank everyone that has supported me and generously donated to my fundraising campaign. We are set to raise an amazing £6000 which will go towards helping a lot of young lives.

COCO is a registered children's charity aiming to improve the lives of children in the developing world through the provision of health and education initiatives.

Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
