SHAP Kilimanjaro Challenge: SHAP In The Press

SHAP Kilimanjaro Challenge October 2010

Welcome to the online home of the SHAP Kilimanjaro Challenge. This October a team of intrepid explorers will trek to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro to raise funds for SHAP, a homeless charity based in the North West of England. On this blog you will be able to follow our journey and along the way find out information about Mount Kilimanjaro, the trek, the training, the team and of course about SHAP.

SHAP aim to enable homeless, vulnerable or disadvantaged people to take control of their own lives, and to receive the quality of housing and services to which they are entitled. To benefit our service users and to provide new opportunities for our service users which we are unable to fund through our normal resources, we need your donations. You can do this by sponsoring one (or more!) of our team

If you would like to sponsor one of our team please click here, scroll down a bit, and select the just giving link of the team member you would like to sponsor (IMPORTANT BIT - please remember to select gift aid when you donate and we can claim an extra 28% from the taxman at no extra cost to you!).

Thanks for visiting and please give generously.

SHAP In The Press

This week saw myself (Alan) promoting the SHAP Kilimanjaro Challenge with an article featured in the Widnes Vikings match day programme "The Viking Storm". Many thanks to Mark Naughton and Ian Cheveau at Widnes Vikings.

I was also featured promoting the SHAP Kilimanjaro Challenge in the local newspapers, with an article in the Widnes Weekly News, an article in the Widnes World, and an article in the Warrington Guardian. Many thanks to Mark Smith at the Widnes Weekly News, and Barbara Jordan at the Widnes World/Warrington Guardian.

Look out for a forthcoming article featuring Emma promoting the SHAP Kilimanjaro Challenge in the St Helens Star.
