John Canias, Dongli Hur and Tom Holmer accepted the three peaks challenge and climbed Ben Nevis, Helvellyn and Snowdon over the weekend of 16 and 17th june under the banner of 'team ITF'.

Thanks to the generosity of itf affiliates, friends and family, USD 9,000 was raised to help seafarers by team ITF.

We started at Ben Nevis at 2pm on Saturday, climbed to the snow and cloud capped summit and down again, took a bus to Helvellyn and all climbed as far as we were allowed due to bad weather, then drove to Snowdon and climbed to the summit in beautiful sunshine where for the first time, we could admire the view.

Thank you very much indeed for all those who have supported us!
