Story

Hi All, as some of you already know I am taking on an Everest Base Camp expedition in October 2020. In meantime I will be summiting Irelands highest mountain at 3,500 feet, every few weeks to train at altitude. I will be joined by Irish legend Pat Falvey who has Summited Everest many times and first person in world to complete 7 Summits twice from Tibet and Nepal sides. I will be doing the trek in aid of 2 irish charities (Pieta House Ireland for Prevention of Suicide) and DogsTrust (Re-homing for neglected dogs). Apparentely I will be the first person ever to accomplish this trek in aid of these charities. I am hoping to raise €500 per charity. Donations from as little as €2-€5. No amount is too little. Gofundme proceeds will go towards the flight cost although majority I will fund myself. I will fly several flags at Everest Base Camp and share on social media to let the world see. I would like to thank you in advance, on behalf of Pieta House Ireland and DogsTrust Ireland.
