Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Throughout my music career we were fortunate enough to be an active supporter of the Teenage Cancer Trust - a UK charity focused on providing support to the seven people in the UK, aged between 13-24 years old, who are told they have cancer every day. This one of kind charity provides tailored support in specialized hospital units with nurses, youth workers and doctors all collaborating to provide a unique level of care to those who instead really should be thinking about their first relationships, or what their future goals and aspirations could be. Now I'm a corporate 9-5er, my admiration for this great charity has by no means waned, and the desire to support is still strong.

The challenge I've set myself, is to take on the 3 highest peaks in the Atlas Mountains, Morocco in September. This challenge tackles 3 x 4000m+ ascents, back-to-back across 4 days, including the highest point in North Africa- totaling approx 1.5 x the total height of Everest. The trip will include about 50km of hiking/scrambling across varied terrains and gradients, but one thing is for sure... it's going to be pretty brutal.

All donations, whatever you can afford, are most welcome, and every penny will go towards a great cause. The trip itself is self-funded to ensure that all contributions go to those who need it most.

Big love x
