Alexander Devine Children's Hospice to benefit from Mount Kilimanjaro climb

An intrepid athlete is heading to Tanzania to climb Mount Kilimanjaro and is taking The Business Magazine with her.

Georgia Clarke will have her climbing gear emblazoned with our masthead when she embarks on her challenge in mid-July.

The 26 year old is Chief of Staff for the International Business and Diplomatic Exchange (IBDE) having previously studied at Royal Holloway in Surrey. 

The keen marathon runner and triathlete decided to raise money for charity each year after completing the Royal Parks Half Marathon before going on to run the full marathon in October last year. 

This year Georgia will scale the 20,000 feet to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania in aid of Alexander Devine Children's Hospice in Maidenhead which is also the chosen charity for Thames Valley Property Awards in 2023. 

Georgia said: "I decided that I was going to raise money once a year as a pledge to do something good.

"When you are doing a challenge like this it helps to be doing it for a cause that you believe in as it helps you to dig deep at the vital moments.  

“Knowing I have the support of friends and family makes a difference."

Good luck Georgia from everyone at The Business Magazine!
