<div>Hey, firstly, a big thank you for taking time to check out my fundraiser for some very worthy charities by treking over 15 days to Everest basecamp.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In March 2024, I'm returning to Nepal with a strong team of 14 others and taking on Mt Everest Base Camp for the second time.  
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Everest is one of the world's highest civilisations, with our basecamp peak at 5364 meters tall. The trip starts with a rollercoaster ride from Katmandhu to Lukla airport, dubbed "the world's most dangerous airport" It's probably the highest, shortest, steepest runway in the world, but nothing a shot or 2 of whiskey won't put right!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The journey is not for the faint hearted, walking along the mountain edge, zig zagging your way over snow covered paths and suspension bridges to get you to basecamp. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From then on, we have over 132km of trekking ahead of us, ascending to a height of 5,364m contending with below-freezing conditions, low oxygen levels, possible altitude sickness, little hot water or showers, and half the amount of food I'd usually be seen devouring.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We will be giving up our comforts for two weeks on what will be the trip of a lifetime, raising money for some well-deserved charities.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The first charity is <strong><em>Velindre Cancer Centre</em></strong> -<a href="https://velindre.nhs.wales/velindrecc/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><a href="https://velindre.nhs.wales/velindrecc/" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://velindre.nhs.wales/velindrecc/</a></a>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Velindre is Wales' premier cancer centre providing treatment, care and support to patients and their families. Money raised ables them to support projects over and above those provided by the NHS, including groundbreaking research, specialist equipment, nurses and staff training.
</div>
<div>I think it's safe to say we've all been affected by someone we know who has gone through or currently going through treatment for cancer or end-of-life care. In the past few years, I lost my wonderful aunty, who should have just started enjoying her retirement and most recently supporting my amazing step mum through breast cancer. Velindre played a huge part in the care and support in both cases, and I'm sure the family will agree they go above and beyond for everyone in their care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Secondly I'm raising money for <strong><em>The Firefighters Charity </em></strong><a href="https://www.firefighterscharity.org.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong><a href="https://www.firefighterscharity.org.uk/" target="_blank" class="" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.firefighterscharity.org.uk/</a></strong></a>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ever since I can remember, I have always wanted to be a firefighter; ask anyone in school what I wanted to be when I was older, and they'd say a firefighter.
</div>
<div>Sadly, 6 years ago, I lost my brother in a house fire, and that's when I applied to join the South Wales Fire &amp; Rescue Service to follow my dreams and make my brother proud.
</div>
<div>Being a firefighter for South Wales Fire and Rescue service, I've seen firsthand the great work they do for firefighters and their families.
</div>
<div>The Fire Fighters Charity offers specialist, lifelong support for members of the UK fire services community, empowering individuals to achieve mental, physical and social wellbeing throughout their lives.
</div>
<div>They provide confidential, personalised support to the whole of the fire services community, delivering mental health, physical health and social wellbeing services at our centres, remotely, online and in communities around the UK. Championing the health and wellbeing of all those they support - serving, retired or dependent - they aim to ensure that our beneficiaries can live well for life. And they’re not all firefighters. We exist to support all fire and rescue service personnel, whatever their role in the service. They are also here for all those who have retired, as well as for spouses and qualifying dependents.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As previously mentioned, all donations to these charities would make a huge difference! This trip is self dunded and all money raised will go to the chosen charities!
