Meg's Mount Everest Base Camp page
Megan Holland is raising money for St Michael's Hospice (Hereford)
Story
Hello Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.On November 4th 2016 I will fly out to Kathmandu and on the 9th November fly to Lukla to start a trek to Mount Everest Base Camp (5,356m above sea level) 17,600 ft which will take around two weeks there and back.
This has been a dream of mine for years and I can't actually believe I'm finally going!
I will be self funding my trip but I would like to take this opportunity to raise money for a charity that is so close to my heart. The skilled team at St Michael's Hospice work together to help patients and their families adjust to the inevitable and life changing circumstances that life - limiting illnesses bring. This means that the doctors and nurses there can help relieve symptoms and control pain. Physiotherapists, and occupational therapists work with patients and carers to find techniques to help them continue living independently ; and the other professionals are able to assist with worries about money, housing, offer spiritual guidance and support with emotional upheaval.
Revenue income from 2012/2013 shows that 40% of St Michael's Hospice comes from donations alone and over 50% also comes from the community in the form of lottery shops, legasies and events.
St Michael's hospice only receives 10% funding from the NHS and the rest is based solely on donations so anything given will be a massive help. Any amount you could spare to sponsor me would be greatly appreciated.
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. Just click to donate and if you don't have a just giving account it will just ask for a email address and to create a password and then your payment details
So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity. Thank you everyone x
