On 10 June 2019, Head of Dispute Resolution, Qaiser Khanzada, departed from London with six others (of whom he only knows one) to try and climb the 4,900 metres to reach the peak of the magnificent Mount Kilimanjaro, the world’s highest free-standing mountain at 5,895 metres above sea level. Qaiser and the team accomplished this in just seven days. Qaiser bore all his own expenses and has so far raised a whopping £8,000 in support of Mind, the Mental Health Charity
