Story

Introduction:

I turned 50 this year. A passionate skier with a mission to make a difference. I'm attempting a Guinness World Record - skiing the most countries in a single month. But it's not just about records; it's about changing lives.

The Challenge:

30 countries, 30 days, 12,000 KM's, plus a camper van! It's an adrenaline-fueled race against time, pushing my limits to inspire change and hope.

The Charities:

I'm doing this for The National Brain Appeal and Saint Francis Hospice, two incredible organizations that transform lives every day.

My Motivation:

Saint Francis Hospice is an amazing charity that took unbelievable care of my family in some of the most difficult times.

The National Brain Appeal is the chosen charity of a great friend of mine who has been bravely fighting Multiple sclerosis (MS) for decades. Up to 1 billion people, nearly one in six of the world's population, suffer from neurological disorders.

With your help, these charities can continue their fantastic work making an impact where it's needed most.

My Sacrifice:

I'm all in. The time, energy, and resources I'm dedicating to this challenge show my unwavering commitment to these causes.

Updates: Stay with me throughout the journey as I share real-time updates, photos, and videos.
