We're hoping to use this blog to keep people up to date in the lead up to and during the expedition so people can keep track on how we are doing…  So watch this space and feel free to browse the pages on this blog.

As part of the trip we are planning to raise £6,856 (£1/meter of the mountain) for two charities: Help for Heroes and The Cumbria Legacy Friendship Group.  For more information on this please visit our Fundraising Tab above.
