That this House salutes the courage and selflessness of mountaineer and charity fundraiser Peter Legate of Hythe, Hampshire, who lost his life on Mount Everest on 30th April in the course of a sponsored climb for a deaf children's charity and a children's hospice; and urges support for the Peter Legate Everest Charities Fund in its efforts to continue his great work, both for Children Say and for Naomi House Children's Hospice.
