Ain't No Mountain High Enough
On Thursday evening I was lucky enough to attend an evening in Berkeley Square in aid of the trip about to be undertaken by 8 severely injured servicemen. Walking with the Wounded's everest challenge is to be completed before the Queens Jubilee. These unbelievably brave guys, already faced with every day struggles having lost a limb or worse in battle are due to complete a quest that most able bodied people wouldn't have the stamina to succeed!
Their all-round strength, tenacity, humour and courage is something to be remembered and fills me with so much admiration for them. Hearing them speak of where they are today and how they got there only re-inforced the notion that life is what you make of it. Francis Atkinson, Jaco Van Gass and the rest of the brilliant team - we'll be thinking of you all the way!
