Hi,
Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page.
I am going to carry out The 3 Peaks Challenge with my friends Andre and John on Saturday 16th April 2011. For those who dont know, successful completion of the 3 peaks challenge entails climbing and decending Ben Nevis in Scotland, Scarfell Pike in the Lake District and Snowdon in Wales within 24 hours.
This is quite a difficult challenge and I have been training hard to ensure that i can complete it within the allotted 24 hour period.
I am attempting this in order to raise money for a local Swindon based childrens charity CALM who use valuable donations to care for the needs of families within the Swindon and Marlborough NHS Trust, who have and had children or young persons dealing with Cancer or Leukaemia. CALM is and always has been run by parents, patients and their families on a purely voluntary basis, support is also given by medical and other professionals within the community.
CALM holds no offices and no administrative salaries are taken, keeping running costs to an absolute minimum. This ensures all the money and resources available can go to the families and children who need it most.
Additionally all costs including equipment, travel and food will paid for by myself so every penny of your donation will be donated. Anything you can give will be gratefuly received.
Wish me Luck!!!
Simon
