Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. This year I am raising funds for Brian House Children’s Hospice and Trinity Hospice.

I am actively fundraising through car-boot sales and charity Pilates classes plus generous cash donations and via JustGiving online donations - thank you 🙏

This years international challenge.

On 10th October 2026 I will travel to Nepal to begin my challenge, an 11 day high altitude trek to Everest Basecamp 5364m 🏔️

On day 9 weather and health permitting I plan to continue on to summit Mount Kala Patthar 5644m 🏔️

Brian House is a children's hospice that provides free specialist care and support to children and young people on the Fylde coast who have a life-limiting illness, many of whom have multiple complex needs and sometimes require around-the-clock care.

Anyone who has visited Brian House, will tell you that it's a vibrant, active (and often noisy!) very special place where the most fragile youngsters and their families are supported to make the most of every day.

It costs £1.7 million to keep the doors open at Brian House with very little government funding - As a charity their services are completely free of charge. So, they really rely on the local community and fundraising like this to continue with compassionate care.
