Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

After running the New York Marathon in 1999 and climbing Kilimanjaro in 2005 I have decided that it is time for one last fund-raising challenge. This time I shall be trekking the last degree to the South Pole (i.e.from 89 degrees South) and climbing Mount Vinson , the highest mountain on the Antarctic Continent at just over 16,000 ft. Conditions will be extreme with temperatures regularly below -35 c and considerably colder at the summit of Vinson . I will be camping on the ice for approximately 3 weeks in one of the world's last great wildernesses. I am funding this trip myself so everything you give will go to the Prince's Trust to help disadvantaged young people . I know times are tough but please do the best you can for someone who has probably had a permanently tough time.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Prince's Trust 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.

So please sponsor me now!
