Story

Why I am climbing the highest Mountain in Africa ?

Two reasons,

Firstly, rather than simply donate as I do to various charities I thought it might be more fun & challenging actualy doing something , hence Kilimanjaro.

Secondly & more importantly, I would like to raise as much money as I can for The Oscar Foundation , Why ?

On the 7th March last year Oscar Tuffield was born . Sadly however, it was a still birth as Oscar had passed away earlier that day due to an unexpected complication during the birthing process.

As you can imagine Mum & Dad have had a tough time over the past few months having to deal with every parents nightmare. They didnt want Oscars passing to go in vain.They were determined to create,not only a memorial to Oscar,but a way of helping other children.

So they created the Oscar Foundation, a registered charity its aim is to help sick or underprivaliged children either by funding for medical treatment or help for those left abondened on the street.

So, lets make a deal , I climb the highest mountain in Africa , by the way I am terrified of hieghts !!!!.

Your part of the deal is to dig deep , I wont be back for more money . I am never going to do anything like this again , dont miss the opportunity.

Thanks
