This will be the first of many missions that I envisage undertaking in my quest to spread awareness about Cerebral Palsy and understand its prevalence in under developed nations. I intend to scale Mount Kilimanjaro October 2017 for this cause. I realized that scaling Kilimanjaro will take more than a dream; the fact is that it will take a lot of effort in training and conditioning myself to deal with the various challenges that this climb will bring. I have therefore decided to attempt the ascent of the 3 tallest peaks in the UK, Snowdon, Ben Nevis and Scafell Pike.

Snowdon which is located in western Wales is my first target. I am attempting to scale this on 25 June 2016. This is a 11 Km hike to the top and back. I will be accompanied by an old buddy Alan Buckley who has graciously accepted my invitation to share the challenge. Wish me luck.
