Story

<p>The good news that the Team completed the challenge within the 24 hours!&nbsp; The bad news is that my walking time was restricted having spent most of the travelling in the mini-bus being sick.&nbsp; Then,&nbsp;on returning home, found out that I had a compacted-fracture to my wrist following a fall at Ben Nevis.</p> <p>Forgetting the pain and numerous sick bags, the Team were great and a good time was had by all.</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <div id="story" class="frp-message-body" style="height: auto;"> <p>I am&nbsp;again raising funds for CdLS. This time, on 2nd&nbsp;July,&nbsp;I aim to complete the&nbsp;3 Peaks Challenge - which is to climb the UK's 3 highest&nbsp;mountains in a 24 hour period:</p> <p>Ben Nevis - 1,343m; Scafell Pike - 978m &amp; Snowdon - 1,085m</p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>All the money raised goes to the charity</strong></span> so any money that you can&nbsp;give would be appreciated and keep me focused during the&nbsp;trek which involves 'sleeping' in the minibus that&nbsp;takes us between the 3 Peaks!<br /><br />Why fundraise for Cornelia de Lange Syndrome?&nbsp; Kamen, my nephew, has CdLS - that's the connection.&nbsp;</p> <p>Why should you donate?&nbsp; To help in the research of this little know syndrome which is a rare genetic disorder affecting between one in 40,000 and one in 100,000 live births (that's 100 times rarer than a child with Down's Syndrome).&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It&rsquo;s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cornelia de Lange Syndrome Foundation UK gets your money faster and, if you&rsquo;re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.<br /><br />Thanks very much</p> <p>Lisa&nbsp;xxx<img src="http://www.justgiving.com/FCKeditor/editor/images/smiley/msn/teeth_smile.gif" alt="" />&nbsp;</p> </div> <p>&nbsp;</p>
