Story

Last year, I attempted to cycle Lands End to John O'Groats and it was one of the most exhilarating experiences of my life.  It was self funded.  This year, I was looking for a new challenge and this trek came up.  I've been meaning to climb Kili, but each time she's called out to me before now it's just not been the right time.  This time, however, she bellowed my name so I decided to take the plunge and for the first time in a very long time have decided to fundraise for a charity dear to my heart.  I know the money I raise will create ripple affects across many communities; please help me to help them.

A little bit of trivia for you: Shaila means a fair few things in various languages but the one that I'm proud to claim is Small Mountain.  Kili is anything but small but does size really matter?
