On the 22nd - 24th of June I'll be completing the Three Peaks Challenge, climbing the highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales in under 24 hours.

Between Ben Nevis, Snowdon and Scafell Pike there is 10,000 feet of ascent over a distance of 37kms.

I'm raising money on behalf of Arco, a partnership between Royal Birmingham Conservatoire and Cape Gate MIAGI Centre for Music in Soweto in Johannesburg because I have a huge passion for music and education.

Arco provides subsidies, support, access to education and training to talented young people who for many reasons do not have access to a musical education and have paid for weekly lessons for almost 18 months, along with food and staffing costs.

Please support the development and education of young musicians in Soweto!
