Adam's Everest Base Camp Trek 2020
Fundraising for Marie Curie
Story
Hello everyone, thanks for stopping by!
On 26th October 2020, I will be embarking upon a 16-day adventure of a lifetime to Everest Base Camp, situated at the altitude of 17,598ft in Nepal. I will be self-funding this expedition so that all proceeds raised can go directly to Marie Curie. Between now and October I will be undertaking various fundraising activities such as raffles, auctions and sporting events (TBC); so please check back throughout the year for updates!
Any support will be very much appreciated, please donate!
How the money raised helps:
£180 pays for someone with a terminal illness to attend the day therapy unit at the hospice.
£400 pays for someone to stay in a Marie Curie Hospice for 24 hours so that they can receive the hands-on care they need in their final days.
£1,250 pays for a portable oxygen system that will relieve distressing symptoms, so a person doesn’t have to be confined to bed.
