I am raising money for Amnesty International UK by taking part in the Mount Kilimanjaro Challenge. I'll be climbing the highest mountain in Africa over the course of nine-days, facing extreme temperatures, altitude and challenging terrain along the way.

Amnesty International's work stretches over 150 countries, and Mount Kilimanjaro stands at 5,895 meters. So, I will be lifting 150kg per meter of elevation before the trek, totalling at 884,250kg!

Your donations will help Amnesty International UK expose human rights abuses in the UK and all over the world and to campaign for freedom and justice.
