Hi,
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. After the success of last years Mount Toubkal challenge (where me and the team raised over £200,000 for charity) we have decided to take on a greater challenge including more altitude! - See the itinerary below!
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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.So please dig deep and donate now.
