Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

I have joined together with my brother and his EE New Business team to climb up the 5,895m high Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania to raise money for the Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity (GOSHCC).

The plan is for the team to raise over £60,000, some of which will cover trip costs, to help GOSHCC raise money for the vital redevelopment of the hospital's oldest buildings, purchase state of the art equipment, fund pioneering research into childhood illness and provide support to the hospital's young patients. Every penny we raise will help to give hope to very ill children and their families.  I have set myself a fundraising target of £4,295 to help this fantastic hospital to continue to provide world class care and to treat and cure childhood illnesses.

To find out more about the great work of GOSHCC please take couple of minutes to watch this short film https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igmElEBGBZY. 

You'll see my fundraising target on the right. Your donation can really help me and the team smash our goals, and will be gratefully received.

In addition to this challenge, I am also undertaking a number of other challenges and activities in 2015 to help me reach my fundraising goal, including running my first ever marathon when I take part in the Helsinki marathon in August, and growing some dodgy facial hair for Movember, taking part in the Give it Up for GOSH challenge, as well as undertaking charity car boot sales.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
