Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Our latest adventure is to climb the 3 highest peaks in the UK, Snowdon, Scarfell Pike and Ben Nevis. Colin and I have NEVER climbed a mountain, never mind three, so please, we need your support.

To steal Julie Andrews song

 The Hills are alive with the Sound of Music.

The bills are still high with the pounds for research,

With the hopes and the dreams of a thousand eyes,

So please give some cash for treatment research,

To cure RP for all of the girls and the guys.

Many of you have taken part and supported our fundraising challenges in the past, we are very grateful for this support and appreciate it greatly as the scientists that we sponsor are getting ever closer to that cure or treatment for this eye condition, that causes blindness through defective genes.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.
