So time has come for my Kilimanjaro adventure to begin. Massive thank you to my family and friends who have supported me in raising over £4000 for the Hadrian School in Newcastle and to Ingeus UK and their staff who have made this challenge possible. I would also like to personally thank Jackie Terry, James Terry, Joe Terry and Wayne Terry for promoting my challenge with all of their friends and raising money (mostly through drink related events). David Armstrong for constantly giving me fundraising ideas (even though some were a bit dodgy). Hytham Hassan, Marcus Barnes, James Terry, Will and Luke for taking part in the 3 peak challenge. Julie Philipson Wilson, Sarah Hassan and Sandra Boustead for your time and effort with the Sainsburys bag pack and Karen Savage and the Ingeus Newcastle staff for constantly turning up for events and giving to my cause over the past 12 months. Big thank you to my sister in law, Denise Tymon who has helped me raise so much money, having a hand in most fundraising ideas and raising a massive amount through her bake sale at Newcastle City Council. Lastly, Helen Terry, I would not be in the position to go on this adventure or raised as much money if you were not there to support and constantly encourage me to achieve the goals I set out for myself. Thank you for your support and faith you have in me. Apologies if I have missed anyone. As you can see a lot of people have really helped over the past 12 months. If you would still like to give to The Friends of Hadrian School to help me raise money for kids with severe learning difficulties, you can donate to justgiving/davesbigclimb or you can text DTBC £10 to 70070 Thank you all.
