Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Apologies - not a brilliant photo - taken from the plane  a couple of days ago flying to Sandakan from Kota Kinabalu. But, that big pointy thing poking through the clouds is Mount Kinabalu - the highest mountain in Borneo at 4,095m (that’s a very respectable 13,435 ft).

In fact it’s the highest peak south of the Himalayas, until you get to Iryan Jaya.

I was first in Borneo way back in 1978, as a member of the Trans-Borneo Expedition, but didn’t get a chance to go up the mountain. So now over 40 years later, and 40 years older, I’m back on unfinished business......

As I’ve said above, I hate asking people for money, but if you think this venture is worthy of a donation, or even if you think it’s completely foolhardy, please consider showing your support or perhaps disbelief by making a donation to the Nepal Trust.

Our current 100% Project is aiming to optimise schoolgirls’ educational prospects by addressing issues around 

Thanks very much!!

I’ll let you know how things go.......
