Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm raising money for SoLO because they do an amazing job, my brother Simon has been going to their open door club on Wednesday evenings for years and he loves it! I have self funded the trip so every penny raised goes directly to SoLO.

I've chosen a tough challenge, Kilimanjaro is the highest free standing mountain in the world, reaching 5895m, it will take 5 days to reach the summit and 2 days to descend, camping along the way (no showers or toilets ahhhh)

I will be treking through rainforest, moorland, desert, snow and ice for 6-7 hours a day and then 12 hours on summit day, enduring all 4 seasons, 30 degrees centigrade down to -20 degrees.

Please sponsor me to help SoLO help others, I will keep you updated through my training and journey

Thank you
