Less Than One Week To Go


By Barney and Charlotte

With less than one week to go, all our gear is packed, vaccinations sorted, visa in the passport and all our necessary medication obtained. It seems like it’s been a long year in the making, with plenty of training walks completed and numerous charity events attended. It now boils down to just one thing…climbing Mount Kilimanjaro!!

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those people who generously donated their time, venues and prizes to help raise money and awareness for The Steve Charles Help a Friend Fund. It’s been a tough year training and raising money for this event but all the hard work has paid off. The Charity has really grown over this past year with all the time and effort that the whole team has put in.

While we can’t thank every single individual that has donated we would like to mention the businesses that have contributed greatly, either through our events or through continual support. Those are as follows:

Glyn & Beth Worthington – The Galley Bistro Weymouth

David & Joy Scadden – Sunny Days Nurseries Ltd.

Barry Whettingsteel - Dorset Digital Solutions

Gary & Ali Record – Lazy Lizard

Lewis Taylor - BoHo

Chris Coghlan – JuiceBox Handmade Instruments

Jerry Butcher - ApotsPhoto

Dorset Cereals

Fulvio Figliolini – Rossis Ices

Rob and Terri Cole – The Esplanade Hotel

Andy Steel – Personal Trainer

Steph Geran – South Coast Equestrian

Chris Piercy – Magician

Billy Hutchinson, Olly Coe & Josh Ellis – The Leggomen

Mark Storey & David Powell

Nathan Bennett - UDL

Wendy Buckingham – The Spice Ship, Preston

…and last but not least…

The Bands: Shooter, Hustle, Stereoironics, Lo Numbers & The Jolly Boys Outing

Huge apologies if we have forgotten anyone. Your support has not gone unnoticed and we’re very grateful for the generous donations we have received.

We look forward to sharing this amazing experience with you. If you would like to follow us you can do so here: http://www.privateexpeditions.com/blog/
