We’re a group of 12 enthusiastic trekkers - Elena, Rory, Majid, Rafa, Mary, Stuart, Pradnya, Marc, Hana, Steve, Nick and Dave - who are going on an ambitious expedition to summit Mount Kilimanjaro. (We have in our group a relative of Ernest Shackleton, so we have good grounding in exploration!)

Why are we doing this? While we are in the fortunate position of being able to realise our dreams of doing something extraordinary, we are also raising money for charities which support young people to achieve their dreams.

Thank you for any contribution, no matter how small or big.

Make-A-Wish® UK creates life-changing wishes that revive the childhood that critical illness takes away, bringing light and joy at the darkest of times for a child and their loved ones. But right now, there are 60,000 children in the UK living with a critical condition, and they don’t have the resources to be that light for everyone. Your generous support will help them step closer to achieving their vision: to grant a wish to every eligible child. Together, we have the power to light up the darkness.
