In July 2010, Nicola Morris from Blackburn, Lancashire, England, and her father Keith Morris from Blackpool, Lancashire, England, will both be walking the highest free standing mountain in the world. Mount Kilimanjaro, standing at breathtaking 19340 ft (5895 meters).
By doing this they aim to raise as much money as possible to fund further research and raise awareness into a rare genetic condition known as Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP).
The walk is in honor of Luciana Wulkan, who has FOP and who also lives in Lancashire, England.
