Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In June this year, I will be taking on the world's tallest free-standing mountain, Mount Kilimanjaro, also known as the Roof of Africa. I will be taking on this event whilst supporting the Brightest Star charity.

Supporting Bereaved Families

On the 19th December 2012, 6 days before his 6th birthday, Jack Kennedy suddenly fell asleep in his mummy's arms and became the brightest Star in the sky. Brightest Star is the charity founded in his memory to support other broken-hearted mummies and daddies.

Please help us make Jack's legacy a lasting one by allowing us to raise awareness and funds to help other people save children's lives and to support families who also have children shining bright in the sky.

Brightest Star has a number of aims when it comes to supporting bereaved families such as providing crucial first-aid training, bereavement support groups, memory boxes and also working with SCOTSTAR to provide a support transport ambulance for Edinburgh Sick Kid's Hospital.

My goal is to raise £1,000 for this incredible charity.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast, and secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to present - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
