My name is Georgina, I live in Exeter, Devon. I am doing this challenge to raise as much money as possible for 3 fantastic charities. I love walking and climbing mountains, I have already climbed Snowdon 5 times, and Scafell Pike twice and walk for miles regularly. This challenge is going to allow me to do something I really enjoy whilst making a difference to other peoples lives.

I am fundraiing for 3 different charities, 1 for each mountain. I am climbing Ben Nevis in aid of Scottish Mountain Rescue because while climbing in Scotland last year I injured my ankle in a remote area and they came out to my rescue, and so I wanted to give something back to say 'thank you'.I am climbing Scafell Pike in aid of Help For Heroes. I chose this charity because on my first ascent of Scafell Pike whilst already fundraising for H4H we spoke to a serving soldier at the summit who had been to Afghanistan and was going to be returning there, he donated into our collection pot and said 'you never know I may need them one day', this had an impact on me.
And finally I am climbing Snowdon in aid of Children's Hospice South West. I chose this charity because they are local to where I live, they are a charity close to my heart because they provide hospice care for children with life-limiting illnesses.
This challenge took place on 28th June 2012
