Andrew Charlesworth, global director of WarmCore, will be climbing the highest freestanding mountain in the world, Mount Kilimanjaro.
Andrew is to start his ascent up the mountain on 10 September 2024 to raise money for two charities; Kelly’s Heroes, a mental health support charity and Harry’s Pals, a charity that provides emotional support to parents of severely ill or disabled children.
Harry’s Pals is a charity set up by Hayley Charlesworth, Andrew’s wife, and is named after his little boy Harry (8) who is severely disabled.
The charity provides free counselling and therapy sessions as well as short breaks to help families across the country who are struggling as they grapple with the emotional, practical and physical implications of their child’s diagnosis.
Hayley Charlesworth, founder of Harry’s Pals, said: “I am so incredibly proud of Andy, in attempting to climb 6,000 meters and that is no mean feat. I am sure that when the going gets tough he will be motivated by the funding he’s received and the difference that this will make to Harry’s Pals and Kelly’s Heroes. Good luck, we’re all rooting for you!”
