Hope4 - Kilimanjaro Challenge 2026

Hope4 believes in creating lasting change through compassion, empowerment, and community-driven efforts. We hold that every individual deserves dignity, security, and the opportunity to build a stable life. Please take some time to look at the life-changing work we do: HOPE4

So here's the Kilimanjaro story......

Chris in 2024: “I’m NEVER doing that again…” 😱

Chris in 2025: “We’re DOING it again.” 😵💫

In January 2024, 26 incredible people joined Lea 🌈 Turner and me, Chris Lomas, CEO of Hope4, on what became one of the toughest experiences of their lives: climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.

The truth? 🛑 Chris wanted to give up every single day....... but something happened on that mountain… Something that changed him.💡

So, almost two years later, Chris and an amazing team are ready to go again, but this time we want you to be part of our 40 person challenge team. 🔥

And what a team it’s shaping up to be:

🔥 Luther Burrell, former England Rugby star

🔥 Dave Macintosh, our Chief Security Officer and former Gladiator

🔥 Eugene Mattern, capturing the journey

🔥 Nikita Fortmann and Donna-Jade Govender, bringing the heart

We'll be updating this challenge as it grows, the fundraising activity begins and the magic starts to spread and grow.
