Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We decided as a family to climb Kilimanjaro this year and, as so many people have asked which charity we are doing it for, we thought we would do it for my nephew, the girls' cousin, Alexander, who has been suffering from an aggressive form of Crohn's these last 20 months and has spent most of that time in hospital. Alexander has undergone a lot of treatment and still needs more, in fact he could suffer from this for a very long time. Research into such areas as immunotherapy is proving interesting and hopeful for people like Alexander and we would therefore like to help raise funds for this kind of research.  Climbing Kilimanjaro is no easy task and I have to say I am rather nervous about it, but the kids are keen, the flights are booked, we're getting the kit together and so there's no going back! We are leaving on the 4th of July.

Please don't feel obliged in any way but donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Many thanks again
