I hope that you will support me in paying back a little to an area of our Health Service which does so much and can make such a difference to the life of those who through no fault are made with substantial skin discolourations and with an increased risk of melanoma.

My youngest son Matthew, now a freshly graduating physiotherapist received surgery on his tiny body as a baby which successfully removed the problem leaving him with a massive single scar to impress with! 

He is now channelling his life to help others as are his brothers. We are so glad he has the chance.

All funds raised will be hard earned as I reach the top at just over 6100m (3.8 vertical miles). I know in high places friendly faces will keep me going, and hopefully to come back.

So as you know I will need your help as always, and I guarantee to put a good word in for you when I’m up there! It might come in handy one day.

Thank you

Norm
