my event
Ascent of Mont Blanc, the highest peak in Europe.
Hello,
Thank you for coming to the site!
This August Bank Holiday, I will be attempting the climb to the summit of Mont Blanc (4,800m).
This will be a great challenge for me, and 18 others (all with little or no experience of such expeditions) in an effort to raise money for Sense International.
Sense International supports education and training for deafblind children in developing countries. There are many causes of deafblindness and there are an estimated 2.5million people effected globally. Sense International is trying to improve government awareness, build infrastructure and support groups, train teachers and establish early identification centres for some of the most marginalised people in the world.
The expedition group aims to raise £37,000 for a specific project to create a Centre of Excellence (with 6 teachers and 30 medical professionals) in Eastern India. Every penny you give will go direct to the charity. You are not paying my costs. And being a small, cost efficient charity operating in the third world, your sponsorship makes a huge difference.
For a taste of what lies ahead for us, here's a youtube clip of the glacial traverse towards the summit:

Now that's got to be worth sponsorship.
Thanks for your help!
