Story

  • The Objective

  • Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

    We've joined together to raise money for Meir Panim.

    The mission of this exceptional charity is to alleviate the effects of poverty in thousands of families across Israel by supporting a range of food and social service programs aimed at helping the needy with dignity and respect, including free restaurants, meals-on-wheels, school lunch programs and prepaid food cards.

    You can read more about their amazing work on the Just Giving links from this Team Page.

    You'll see our team fundraising target on the right. Your donation can really help us smash this goal; every penny we raise will be donated.

    Our aim is to climb the three highest peaks in Britain within 24 Hours.  Starting with Ben Nevis in Scotland, then Scafell Pike in the Lake District and ending with Snowdon in Wales, we hope, weather and traffic permitting to climb and drive the length (and height) of this Sceptered Isle within a single day.  The Challenge is due to take place on 24th June - the Midsummer weekend - so as to have maximum daylight to help us.

    There are 5 of us doing the climbing; David and Anthony Dwek, Ethan Ezra, Eddy Wax and Alex Rudofsky.  And we have roped in a driver who will not only wear a chauffeur's cap for the duration of the trip but will also have hot soup and pastrami sandwiches ready at the end of each climb.

    Please support these magnificent causes.  They are counting on you and so are we.  Please also leave any MESSAGES of advice and encouragement on our TEAM PAGE.

    Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.  Gift Aid can be (an additional 28%) reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too.

    We will do our utmost to complete the 3 Peaks Challenge within 24 hours and will keep everyone updated.  After all, we've been training together for 9 years.

    Best wishes from all of us. And a HUGE thank you for your kindness and generosity.

    So please dig deep and donate now.
