Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. As you probably know, we rather enjoy travelling. We also love walking and hiking. But we've never attempted anything like this together before. 

At the end of January 2019, we'll be heading to Tanzania to embark upon a six-day hike along the Machame route to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's highest peak and one of the world's tallest mountains. There will be hours upon hours of walking uphill. There will be a notable lack of oxygen and a significant risk of altitude sickness. There will be sub-zero temperatures. There will be pooping in public. 

So, we're using this challenge as an opportunity to raise funds for a great cause.

The reason we've chosen to support Mind is because so many people, including people close to us, are affected by mental health issues. There is much work still to be done in removing the stigma around these 'invisible' illnesses and ensuring mental health is valued and respected in the same way as physical health. Mind provides invaluable advice and support to empower those experiencing a mental health problem, and campaigns to raise awareness and promote understanding.

Thank you so much for your support. Now, please excuse us while we spend the next two months desperately trying to get into shape...
