Story

A huge THANK YOU for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

MY STORY:

I am taking on the challenge of my life and trekking in the Himalayas, Nepal through the Khumbu ice fall until reaching base camp in the shadows of the world’s highest mountain, the iconic Mount Everest!

I will be trekking and taking on this 18 day extreme challenge in October 2023. 

The challenge is in memory of my mum 💖 who fought so bravely for many years with breast cancer before finally succumbing in 2008.

Like so many others, family & friends who have had personal experiences of dealing with cancer I wanted for many years to take on this challenge to raise awareness and make a positive contribution to saving lives.  Now, I finally have the opportunity to do it! 

My challenge is 100% self funded so that you can be assured that every single Pound (£) / Dinar (RSD) / Euro (€) / Dollar ($) raised will go direct to the charity to help combat this horrible disease.

Thanks to each and everyone of you so very very much for visiting my charity page and donating to this very worthy cause.

Yours sincerely,

Simon 🙏
