Supporting my mission
Summiting Everest is no easy feat, and it comes with significant costs. I have outlined a series of training milestones with approximate costs below:
£30 - BathHalf, October 2023 (✓)
£1600 - Winter Skills course in Scotland, March 2024 (✓)
£100 - London Marathon, April 2024 (✓)
£4,000 - Mera Peak Summit, November 2024 (✓)
£5,000 - Mt Kenya Summit, January 2025 (✓)
£200 - Scotland Ultramarathon, May 2025
£10,000 - Himlung Himal Summit, October 2025
£50,000 - Everest Summit, April 2026
As a DeafBlind climber, I require a dedicated support team, which significantly increases the overall expedition costs. In addition to this, essential expenses include mountaineering clothing, specialized gear, and travel. For a detailed breakdown, you can view my sponsorship proposal here.
Will you join me in reaching my next fundraising goal of £10,000 for the Himlung Himal climb in October 2025, helping turn this ambitious vision into reality?
