Kilimanjaro climb for Childhood Eye Cancer Trust
Fundraising for The Childhood Eye Cancer Trust
Story
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. In September I am climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the largest single standing mountain in the world at over 19,000ft. It's a 6 day climb with temperatures capable of falling to -25°C.
I'm doing this climb to raise money for the Childhood Eye Cancer Trust (CHECT) who were able to help a close friend and her son George, who was diagnosed with Retinoblastoma (Rb) at only 18 months of age, which resulted in the loss of his right eye and a fight to save his left. Rb is a fast growing eye cancer of early childhood, Rb almost always develops before 5 years of age and some children are born with the cancer.

I am funding this trip myself so all the money raised will go straight to charity.
