Kili Topping Challenge Posted January 19, 2015 by admin

Off

SATURDAY 4 & SUNDAY 5 JULY 2015

9AM-5PM

@ Roseberry Topping, Newton-under-Roseberry, North Yorkshire.
Come and join us as we attempt to climb the height of Mt. Kilimanjaro without leaving the comfort of Teesside! 

Join us on Saturday 4 & Sunday 5 July 2015 and help us raise funds for The Meserani Project (Reg. No. 1135670).

Through collecting sponsorship for the Kili Topping Challenge, we aim to raise funds for this life-changing project. To date, over 157 pupils have been sponsored through the project to go to secondary school as well as the first Meserani Project cohort of students being sponsored to go on to further education. In addition, 3 primary schools have been rebuilt, furbished and supplied with educational materials, water tanks provided to two local boarding schools as well as the installation of solar power at Kipok Girls School in Tanzania.

We aim to climb the equivalent of the height of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania without even leaving Teesside. This requires us to trek up and down Roseberry Topping a total of 18 times – all in one weekend!

There are 4 ways you can take part:

  • OPTION 1 – complete the challenge as an individual – complete the necessary number of climbs to cover the elevation of Mt. Kilimanjaro on your own
  • OPTION 2 complete the challenge as a team – gather a group of friends, family etc. and complete the necessary number of climbs to cover the elevation of Mt. Kilimanjaro in a relay format
  • OPTION 3 – complete one leg of the ‘general climb’ – either on your own or in a group, complete a minimum of one leg of the challenge to contribute to the general event climb which will be taking place throughout the day i.e. for those who still wish to take part but are unable to complete the full distance
  • OPTION 4 – a journey of the mind – if climbing a mountain on a Saturday morning is not your cup of tea, why not do it in your head? After all, it’s the thought that counts! Simply donate to The Meserani Project and you’ll receive your very own certificate to certify your ‘mental’ climb instead:

    Donate £5 for a BRONZE award   Donate £7.50 for a SILVER award   Donate £10 for a GOLD award

The event is open to everyone so spread the word to family, friends and colleagues and help us create the best turn-out we can on the day!
