Rob and Yon Lawson recently took part in a mammoth challenge - forming part of a group of 18 dedicated people who climbed an impressive 17,590ft up to Mount Everest Base Camp.
Rob was kitted out in his brasher's which provided him with the support he needed for the trek.
Between them they raised more then £1,500 for St Clare's Hospice and 'Show Racism the Red Card', a campaign using top footballers to educate young people against racism.

Rob commented that "the challenge was probably the hardest thing I've ever done, especially with the altitude around Base Camp" but with the help of the team they all completed the trek together.
