My story

 
  We did it! We waved the Malawian flag on Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon. Not quite in the 24 hours, but if it wasn't for losing over 2 hours stuck in a major traffic accident, we would have done.  Other than a bit of mist on the top of Scafell Pike we had fantastic weather. And we entertained a lot of other climbers in our Hawaiian and golfing attire. Thank you all for your continued support and sponsorship.

Over the 7th/8th August I’ll be attempting the national Three Peaks Challenge. I’m taking four wonderful friends (Laura, Chris, Abby and Becky) with me and we’ll have 24 hours in which to climb Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon - the three highest mountains in the UK.

I’m doing the Three Peaks Challenge for three reasons, the third being most important:

1. I’m a bit mad.

2. I’ve wanted to do this for a while; I tend to suffer mountain withdrawal symptoms quite frequently.

3. I’m fundraising for Malawi, a small African country for which I’ve developed a big passion after visiting last year. 

RIPPLE Africa is a UK charity working in Malawi with education, healthcare and environmental projects. The charity's philosophy is to provide a hand up, not a hand out. To find out more about some of the fantastic work done by RIPPLE Africa, visit their website at www.rippleafrica.org.

In this section I'm supposed to write 'my' story, but I hope the pictures tell their own.

THANK YOU FOR WHATEVER YOU CAN SPARE.

Emma
