Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  I am taking up the Redpoint Ski Challenge which involves attempting to ski all the runs in the Ziller Valley, Austria in just 6 days! 

This means getting the first lift up to the slopes at the crack of dawn and skiing that last valley run in the evening as the sun goes down and every slope in between.  Lunches will be quick, although I'm sure there will be the odd well- earned "Bier" in the Apres Ski bar at the end of the day.

The Ski Challenge is being organised by Redpoint Holidays who arrange  ski holidays to Austria for all levels of skier including specialist holidays for skiers with a disability. Redpoint works closely with Disability Snowsport UK to provide opportunities for people with a disability to participate in skiing and snowboarding. Please show your support with a donation to help disabled skiers to enjoy skiing as much as we do. 

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. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
