The monies raised from these challenges are to be split equally between MACMILLAN CANCER SUPPORT and the Trust charity (Details of both can be found below)

Hello Friends,
I am profoundly grateful for the generosity in support of the cause.
The intention is to raise awareness and support the clinical services in the areas of Early diagnosis and Air quality.
I set out to climb Mount Kilimanjaro along with 5 other friends and NHS clinicians. This endeavour was designed to be the first of many challenging activities that will be carried out by the members of the clinical team in SWBH over this calendar year.
My attempt to climb the mountain was only a partial success as after 4 days of climb and after having reached a height of 4600 meters above sea level, I developed acute altitude sickness requiring Helicopter evacuation and medical care in the hospital.
Thankfully, I recovered fairly quickly and discharged to my hotel. Four of my friends successfully reached the highest peak 2 days later.
While, I harbour some disappointment, I am pleased to have undertaken this effort and likely will explore other challenges which is closer to sea level!
Once again, thank you for your continued support for the cause.
Best wishes
Arvind
