Bring Me The Horizon Members To Climb Mount Kilimanjaro For Charity

Bring Me The Horizon frontman Oli Sykes and keyboardist Jordan Fish have announced they'll embark on an eight-day climb of Mount Kilimanjaro next year to raise money for a UK hospital. 

As noted by Alt Press, Sykes and Fish will take on the massive climb in January to raise money for the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit at Southampton Hospital who recently took care of Fish's son after he suffered a brain haemorrhage just four days after being born.

"In terms of Eliot's recovery we still have a very long way to go and we are taking each day at a time, however he is still alive to fight, he is breathing on his own and we are seeing small improvements every day," Fish said in an Instagram post.

"He is a little fighter and has shown amazing signs of recovery already, even at this early stage. We owe that completely to the Nurses, Doctors, Neurologists and staff at PICU.

"While I've been in hospital I decided that I would focus myself on doing something positive for the ward and trying to raise enough money to pay for a new bed for them. Oli asked immediately if he could join me and help raise as much awareness for this cause as possible."

Fish has also launched a JustGiving page with an aim to raise £100,000 for the campaign. Click here for more details.

Bring Me The Horizon are set to kick off their Australian tour in two weeks.
