Story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Early next year I am going to be making a world record attempt on the 'Seven Summits'.  To give you more of idea of what this attempt entails read on....

*  The 'Seven Summits' challenge comprises of climbing the seven highest summits on the seven continents.  The summits are: Elbrus (Europe); Denali (North America); Carstensz Pyramid (Australasia); Kilimanjaro (Africa); Mt Vinson (Antarctica); Aconcagua (South America); and the world’s highest mountain....EVEREST!!

*  Only 4 British Women have completed this challenge

*  The world record currently stands at 156 days

I will be developing a website in the near future so that my supporters can follow my progress.  However, in the meantime, and to find more facts and figures on the 'Seven Summits' please visit www.adventurepeaks.com

I have been a 'whole time' Fire Fighter for eight years, prior to that i was 'retained' for a further 2 years.  Throughout my service i have been lucky enough to not have required the services of the Fire Fighters Charity, however i know of colleagues who have benefited from the invaluable help that the charity provides.

In addition to the this charity I will also be fund raising for Bobath (www.bobathwales.org), a charity based in Cardiff that helps children in Wales who have cerebral palsy.


Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Fire Fighters Charity 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
