Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

me amd rob are aiming to push our physical and mental abilities to the extreme in order to raise money for charities that help and support young people and their families who face the realitiy of  life with cancer. we want to give back to those who helped sam and the family deal with the diagnosis and the last few months of life.

This is by no stretch of the imagination going to be easy, many treckers dont make it to EBC due to altitude sickness and unfortunatly a small number of treckers die on the trail. 

 We are heading for Nepal and trekking up to Kalar Pattar peak - just a little bit higher than Everest Base Camp at approx 6000m (18,000ft) - where apparently oxygen levels are at half the normal percentage. We will head on to Base Camp itself after this to mingle with the hardcore climbers heading for the summit.

The trek takes anwhere between 10-15 days and temperatures can reach -20C towards the top at night.

From here we will hopefully get some great views of Everest's summit, although we are not quite hardcore or rich enough to tackle this climb....this time.

we have paid for our flights, accommodation and everything we will need whilst there out of our own pocket so you can rest asure that unlike organised trecks all donations will be going to the charities (without a percentage going to a treck organiser)
