Pilgrim Bandits (Operation Sno ...
Hello and Welcome from Joanna Patterson
Operation Snowcap
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.
In February 2012 I will be trekking all 19,340 ft up Mount Kilimanjaro. Now some of you may think that this is just an excuse to buy some more shoes (albeit walking boots) but in fact I'm doing it for a brilliant cause - raising money for amputee service men and women.
20 of us including 5 amputees will be making the epic journey. I am planning a number of money raising events, auctions, raffles and a desert island disk spinathon, but need to raise £3500 minimum, which is just as daunting as the climb. So please all donations will be fantstic, and should give you that warm feel good feeling.
Prior to the main event we will be off to Snowdon for a mini test run in November. The week after I am doing the "Hell Runner" 11 miles of off road madness, hills, sand, and the "bog of doom" and am planning a sweepstake with a prize for whoever guesses my position in the race.
Now for the standard blurb: "Donating through this page is simple, quick and secure. It is the most efficient way to give – so every donation goes further – and if you are a UK taxpayer and give Gift Aid consent you will boost your donation".
You know what to do and if you have any questions about the event, just let me know. Jo x.
About Pilgrim Bandits (Operation Snowcap)
The attempt in Feb 2012 to get Amputee and Injured servicemen to the top of Kilimanjaro
We started up around 5 years ago made up of ex Special Forces members and mates playing the odd round of golf. Some of these members were used to being called Pilgrims from their Regiment days, the added name Bandits came when four of the members playing in a competition at the New Forest Golf Club won everything and the home members asked them to leave as there handicaps were false and they were golfing bandits, hence the name “Pilgrim Bandits”. However, now we are made up from invited guests and challengers that have raised sponsorship and completed one of our challenges. The charities we've helped to date include Julia Perks Foundation, Teenage Cancer Trust, Special Air Service Regiment Association,and Help for Heroes. In 2010 we became recognised by the Charity Commission as a Charity in our own right. Being a charity will allow us to support many of our amputees and local veterans, plus smaller forces projects. We also hope to be able to fund research and development into Prosthetics for our wounded
