Thanks for visiting our team fundraising page.
In Feburary 2019 I'm travelling to Nepal and trekking for over 2 weeks to Mt Everest Base Camp one of the worlds highest civilisations, in memory of 2 close family members. My trip is completely self funded and 100% of your donation will be going to my chosen charities, Cancer Research & Diabetes UK. Just a £20 donation could help to tackle early diagnosis and prevention.
The trip starts with a rollercoaster ride from Katmandhu to Lukla airport dubbed "the worlds most dangerous airport" It's probably the highest, shortest, steepest runway in the world but nothing a bottle of whiskey wont put right!
From then on I have 71 miles of trekking ahead of me ascending to a height of 5,644m contending with below freezing conditions, low oxygen levels, possible altitude sickness, little hot water or showers .... fun!
I'm giving up my comforts for 2 weeks on what will be hopefuly the trip of a lifetime. We all know someone affected by cancer or diabetes and I would appreciate it if you could give up your beer/takeaway money just for one evening and give to this great cause and make a difference.
ALL your donation money will go to the chosen charities.JustGiving cant split the donations equally between both charities automatically so if you could please make your donation to whichever chairty needs a little boost to keep things even!
Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
