Mahdlo, Factory Youth Zones and OnSide Youth Zones are improving life chances of thousands of young people from Oldham and Manchester. I plan to climb Kilimanjaro to raise funds to support this brilliant work.

Mahdlo aims to provide activities and experiences to young people, raising aspirations and supporting them to be the best they can.

The cost of running Mahdlo is more than £1m per year. Mahdlo are committed to providing lots and lots of activities for young people at affordable prices.

Mahdlo is open every day, 52 weeks of the year.

Mahdlo rely on donations, grants and community fundraising to continue to offer all the services they offer.

I am hoping to raise monies by climbing Kilimanjaro.

I have just over two months to raise as much as I can to support the work of Mahdlo.
