Following on from my posts about climbing Kilimanjaro for charity I was really pleased to recently get an email from Valerie the director of the Amani Childrens Home.

Just a little over a year ago a group of 7 of my friends and I succesfully summited Mount Kilimanjaro by the Machame route raising just over £12,000 for the home. This money was used towards a playground for the children and towards their family reunification project.

It’s great to see something that we all worked so hard for to come to fruition, so big thanks to everyone at iCrossing who contributed and to all my family and friends.

I’ve been thinking of other charity fundraising ideas for next year such as maybe climbing Mount Cho Oyo, walking the Bering Straight, or canoeing the Amazon.

So I would much welcome your ideas below.

Thanks to everyone and especially my mum who brought me my nice down expedition sleeping bag 🙂
