Ben Nevis update

Despite difficult conditions yesterday, a group of climbers successfully reached the top of Ben Nevis, Britain’s highest mountain. It rained throughout the day and three people had to be rescued by the emergency services from the mountain, but, thankfully, all the Aid4Gogo climbers returned safely to Fort William.

So far, 21 people have donated through Paypal, giving a total of £560/$840 which will be used to restore educational facilities in Gogo, Ivory Coast.

Thank you all so much!

Pictures to follow.
