Story

Hey Guys!
So as some of you may know I like my adventures and now it’s time for the next one :)
I have decided to raise a little bit of cash for charity by climbing 'The Ben' (aka Ben Nevis!)
It is the highest mountain in the UK, standing at a massive 1,344 metres (4,409 ft). The trek will be approx 10 miles (16km).
The climb will take place on the 8th September and will last around 7-9 hours (depending on how many times I go to the gym before hand :P)

The Charity
The charity I have chosen to raise money for is Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). I believe this Charity in particular does incredible things, giving children and their families hope and care they need through illness, treatment and recovery.
GOSH need to raise over £50 million a year to fund their objectives of Redevelopment, Equipment, Research and Patient and Family support. Hopefully I can contribute to helping them meet their target.
