https://kenttothesummit.wordpress.com/2013/03/25/jack-bares-all-for-practical-action
Kent to the Summit. Kent students climbing #tothesummit of Kilimanjaro. Jack Bares all for Practical Action. A large amount of my time is spent thinking of things to do that I would potentially later regret- throwing my phone off a bridge, ripping up a 10 note, smashing the telly with a sledgehammer (the really stupid stuff that no sane person would ever actually do but it would be nice to know what it feels like to do it anyway). After all why should they? You can donate and keep up-to-date with Jack...

https://kenttothesummit.wordpress.com/2013/04/25/inspiration-for-fundraising-with-food
Kent to the Summit. Kent students climbing #tothesummit of Kilimanjaro. Inspiration for Fundraising with Food. Guessing the number of sweets in a jar, eating lemon drizzle cake at a bake sale or splatting a pie in someone’s face, food is a fantastic way to bring people together and get their fundraising pulses racing! You could even volunteer your lecturer for the job of victim clown and generate a stampede of student donators! And what’s more, it didn’t cost a penny! A E Barrow and Sons. And some cake p...

Kent to the Summit. Kent students climbing #tothesummit of Kilimanjaro. High Hopes- The Summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro. After showering for the last time before our 6-day trek and gorging on our final egg-free meal (eggs were to become a constant feature of meals on the mountain) we finally arrived at the Machame gate. Gazing up at the layer of thick fog obscuring Kilimanjaro from our view, we were left to imagine the imposing mountain which towered nearly 6000 meters above our heads. Our group gelled instant...

Kent to the Summit. Kent students climbing #tothesummit of Kilimanjaro. RaG Raid Top Tips. What makes people donate to charity? Is a question which has often clouded my mind as I stand on the unfamiliar streets of cosmopolitan cities across the UK, armed with a charity t-shirt, collection bucket and a jolly good sense of humour. Setting out solo to my first London Loot Mega Raid with Meningitis Research Foundation. I’m incredibly grateful to Alex Brown. And the two Daves for being kind enough to help bui...
