I will be joining a group of 30 intrepid trekkers to take on the tallest free-standing mountain in Africa as we climb to an incredible 5,895m above sea level to reach the Kilimanjaro summit. I will be joined on this once in a lifetime experience by Manchester United Legend Bryan Robson, whilst raising funds for Manchester United Foundation.

We will spend seven days ascending to reach the summit, where we will spend our days travelling through rainforest, moorland, highland desert and finally reaching the arctic zone at the summit.

All funds raised will support the education and community outreach programmes delivered by the Foundation in areas of high deprivation across Greater Manchester and beyond.
