On the 21st<\/sup> November, Matt Finch, buyer for Pickstock Construction will undertake the biggest challenge of his life. Matt will trek 13 days to Everest Base Camp.<\/p>\n

Matt is taking on this challenge to raise money for a charity close to his heart, Diabetes UK<\/a>. The charity cares for, connects with and campaigns on behalf of every person affected by or at risk of diabetes.\u00a0 Diabetes UK help people manage their diabetes effectively by providing information, advice and support, and they campaign to improve the quality of care across the UK\u2019s health services.<\/p>\n

Matt chose Diabetes UK as his nominated charity due to his Dad having diabetes for the past ten years, and his uncle was diagnosed three years ago. Matt will trek to Base Camp with a friend and 12 others raising money for their selected charities.<\/p>\n

Matt has been preparing by trekking most weekends over some the UK\u2019s toughest terrains including Snowdon and Yorkshire\u2019s three peaks. He has also been taking part in half marathons in order to increase his fitness.<\/p>\n

Matt commented \u201cI am really looking forward to the challenge, I have been training hard but am under no illusion, this will be the hardest thing I have done, or ever will do\u201d<\/i> Matt added \u201cDiabetes UK is a charity close to my heart and it will be well worth it.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

Matt would like to raise as much money as possible, if you would like to donate, no matter how little, you can do so by visiting Matt\u2019s Just Giving page www.justgiving.com\/matthew-finch3<\/a> or you can text\u00a070070 MATF67 and the amount you wish to donate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
