I'm going to climb the height of Kilimanjaro whilst in my house. That's 5895m  (equivalent to 2183 times up and down our staircase).  I've given myself 3 weeks to complete the challenge but I'm already well on my way. The rest of my family have been helping me out a bit, but I still think I can do most of it myself. Maybe, as a family, we'll get to the top of Everest!

I've been thinking about how there are so many people in other countries in poverty during this crisis and how we are so lucky that we
have water to drink and  to wash our hands with and food to eat. I’m fundraising for Tearfund so that people living in poverty will be better equipped to deal with the devastation of coronavirus. 

We’re starting to see the impact coronavirus is having on some of the poorest communities. In places with poor healthcare and less infrastructure the potential for devastation increases.

By sponsoring me you will help Tearfund’s work, including promoting hygiene practices, providing food for those in quarantine and building hand washing stations.
