Hi All, If you made it this far then thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I will be self funding this challenge so all money raised will go directly to the cause. Please read the following;

On June 21st I will be setting off to tackle the National 4 Peaks of Ireland Challenge where I will attempt to Climb the 4 highest peaks of Ireland in 44hrs (one in each province) whilst raising funds for Heal Palestine.

Those that know me know I have climbed a couple mountains before however this time I’ll be doing it alone (with a mountain guide of course I’m not completely off my rocker). But I don’t know the guy from Adam so here’s hoping he has a good sense of humour & doesn’t mind the odd curse word ffs. This challenge will be different to others I’ve completed as it’s within a much smaller time frame for the number of mountains I will be climbing which will leave shorter time frames for rest/recovery so much more challenging. Do your own maths.

The physical aspects of the challenge I will post about on my social media page so people can see the ins & outs of it and I will attempt to document my training daily and the challenge itself when the time comes closer but the important part is really why I am doing this challenge and what for.

As previously mentioned I will be taking on this challenge for Heal Palestine who do amazing work for Palestinian people. Some of the things they have achieved in just 1 year I will bullet point below;

•Brought 30 injured children from Gaza to the USA for life-saving, free medical care.

•Opened the HEAL Palestine-Kuwaiti field hospital and treated tens of thousands of sick and injured people.

•Provided mental health therapy for Palestinian children in Gaza, the USA, and Egypt, helping them cope with unimaginable trauma.

•Delivered education to hundreds of children through our classrooms, giving them a chance to learn and dream.

•Fed, clothed, and provided humanitarian aid to hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza, meeting their urgent needs.

Heal Palestine charity is founded by Steve Sosebee who founded, built and led the ‘Palestinian Children’s Relief Fund’ for 33 years - so he’s legit is what I’m getting at. He now aims to build a holistic, learner & transparent organisation for Gaza’s Children.

The people in Palestine are being subject to unimaginable inhumane circumstances and it infuriates me every time I see a new video appear of a human being, a healthcare worker, a parent or a child being subject to further daily attacks from Israel not forgetting the UK & US Governments that aid and abet these war crimes.

Palestinian people are human & Israel is committing a genocide & whether people agree with my opinion is not something I give a fuck about however what I do think is if you are a PARENT to a CHILD and you can come across a video or a social media post about the torture that the people of Palestine are going through and you can go about your daily life without actively trying to do something to change the fate of those people then you have lost a part of your soul & you should do something about that.

I will stand up for those who are oppressed.

Actions speak louder than words they say but both together are even more powerful.

In 2025 I hope that there is a ceasefire for Palestine but until then everyone must do something.

If you can donate £1 that’s more than enough. I’m aiming for £5000 - whether I make it or not who knows but I’ll do what I can to get it that far. Any amount raised will be better than zero and I am happy with that. I’ll organise a fundraiser later in the year.

So, now that my inarticulate ass has finished ranting there is only one last thing to say …

FREE FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸
