On Sunday 9 July 2017, myself and 12 other girls from Queen Margaret's School, York, will set off on a four day adventure to climb the three highest mountains in Wales, England and Scotland. First we will tackle Mount Snowdon in North Wales, then Scafell Pike in the Lake District and finally, but by no means least, Ben Nevis in Scotland.

I will be climbing over 3,000 metres upwards, all in aid of Mary’s Meals. Mary’s Meals is a global movement that sets up school feeding programmes in communities where poverty and hunger prevent children from gaining an education. The charity now feeds more than 1.2 million children every school day and it costs just £13.90/€15.60 /$19.50 to feed a child for a year. Your donation, however big or small, will give the rest of the team and I the motivation we need to achieve this feat. Thank you for your support.
