On October 3rd 2009, Suzanne and Suzie will commence the eight day long climb up Kilimanjaro, which is the tallest free standing mountain in the world. From base camp where we start, we’ll be climbing 5,000m vertical which makes it a round trip of 74km. This is an extremely arduous climb in often sub zero conditions, camping out under the stars, aching limbs not forgetting the day of the summit an anticipated 15 hours of climbing, it is far from an easy feat!
We are raising money this year for an innovative research project into brain cancer, specifically Glioblastomamultiforme ( GBM ) which is being conducted atUniversityCollegeHospital.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: UCLH Charity gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation. All the money that you give will go to the Research project as we have covered all the costs of our own trip.
With further research, we can help improve the survival rates for those diagnosed with GBM and really make a difference, so please dig deep and help us. Thanks.
