Hi,
As i'm sure many of you are aware, a group of us are embarking on the 3 Peaks Challenge www.national3peaks.co.uk. The event will dare the team to climb the 3 highest mountains in Scotland - Ben Nevis, England - Scafell Pike and Wales - Snowdon. In total, the team will climb 10,000ft in under 24 hours (the equivalent of a Marathon over 3 mountains !!)
The funds raised will go to the British Red Cross www.redcross.org.uk, who aid people in crisis, whoever and wherever they are. The Tsunami in Asia, War in Iraq and the floods in New Orleans are just a few examples of recent disasters where the British Red Cross have helped people.
Five Reasons Wine - Tunbridge Wells - www.fivereasonswine.co.uk have kindly donated a mystery prize to the person who can guess the closest time of our completion excluding drive time (time is ascent / descent only as our driving driving is capped). For example, when you sponsor us:
Deutsche Bank - Hannah Leggott - £million - 13hrs 24mins - comment
(hint ca. 4.5 hrs a mountain)
Because Deutsche Bank, RBOS and HSBC have matching schemes, if you work for one of them PLEASE specify in your comments so that your donation can be matched. If you don't we will potentially lose out on valuable sponsorship.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: British Red Cross will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
So please sponsor us now!
Many thanks for your support.
