Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Millions of people wake up with arthritis every morning and face the day in pain, without the support and recognition they deserve. Arthritis attacks what it means to live and people with arthritis are often left to manage alone. Versus Arthritis invests in breakthrough treatments, the best information and vital support for everyone affected by arthritis. Please sponsor me so that together we can overcome the pain, isolation and fatigue of arthritis.

We will be trekking for 3 weeks with the aim of reaching the highest point in the Southern and Western Hemispheres. Aconcagua stands at 6,962m (22,841ft) and is one of the Seven Summits (as the highest mountain in South America). The four of us either live or work with people affected by arthritis and, whether we get to the top or not, we'd love to use this opportunity to raise funds to support the great work this charity does.
