I need your help

My name's Jon Phillips and in October I'm planning to take a sponsored walk in the Himalayas to raise money for the Prince's Trust. This is the biggest challenge in my life and I'm already in training.

I want to raise £3,000 and this is where you can help - I need people and local businesses to sponsor me.

How can you sponsor me?

If you run a business I have a number of corporate sponsorship packages that you could consider:

Premier - £100 of sponsorship gives you:

• Your logo displayed on this website
• Your logo embroidered on my hiking jacket
• Your logo on any promotional literature

Silver - £50 of sponsorship gives you:

• Your logo embroidered on my hiking jacket
• Your logo on any promotional literature

Alternatively just make a donation in the knowledge you'll be helping me and the Prince's Trust.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Prince's Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

The Trek

I am undertaking the Bhari Pokhari one week trek at a maximum altitude of 3500 metres. This is a wonderful and varied trek that gives the feeling of walking in the high Himalayas.

The Prince's Trust

Around one in five young people in the UK are not in work, education or training. Youth unemployment costs the UK economy £10 million a day in lost productivity, while youth crime costs £1 billion a year.

The Prince's Trust gives practical and financial support to the young people who need it most. We help develop key skills, confidence and motivation, enabling young people to move into work, education or training.
