Story

I am climbing the equivalent height of Mount Everest by Munro.

A Munro is a Scottish mountain with a height over 3,000 feet (910m). Mount Everest has a height of 29,029 feet (8,848m). I have calculated that I need to climb 8 Munros to complete the challenge, starting with Ben Lomond and finishing with Ben Nevis. I aim to complete this challenge by 31st July 2016.                                                                                        

I visited Nepal in 2012 and fell in love with the country and the wonderfully friendly people. I was shocked in April 2015 when I saw the devastating effects of the earthquake and my mind turned immediately to the people I had met.

I am raising money to support an orphanage project in Nepal. The 2015 Nepal earthquake stopped construction for a number of months and also had an impact on the money being raised to pay for materials and labour.

There is no state funded support for children and families in Nepal if children are orphaned or abandoned. The Charity's aim is to provide children with a safe environment where they can live and go to school, hopefully providing them with a better future than they were facing.

Any help you can give me will make a difference to the lives of these children in Nepal.
