Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I started climbing flights of stairs at Holm Court where I live, the day after my 99th birthday, hoping to be on the summit of Everest the day before my 100th on 23rd October this year. Every day I climb a minimum of 9 flights of 18 stairs (up AND down). I am now over half way and have just ‘stood’ on the top of Mt Blanc! Over the next 6 months I shall be ticking off the Seven Summits (the highest points on each continent). Everest here I come!!
