Three Peaks · 8 June 2019

Someone is diagnosed with blood cancer in the UK every 14 minutes, and many will need a blood stem cell transplant for a second chance at life. We are committed to increasing the number of potential blood stem cell donors in the UK, so that there is a donor for everyone who needs one.

Story

I joined GoCardless in October 2018 and was hired by a hugely talented and inspirational leader, AG.


Unfortunately for the second time in his life in December 2018 he was diagnosed with a life threatening type of cancer.


His sheer determination and spirit is an inspiration to me and so many more people at GoCardless and far wider.  So over 90 of us from work are attempting to complete the National Three Peaks challenge in June 2019.


We will start at 7am climbing Ben Nevis, then aim to ascend Scafell Pike in the evening followed by a long dark walk up Snowdon at 2am!


The plan is to have climbed the three highest peak in England, Scotland and Wales within 24 hours while raising money for a great cause!


By the end of it, I will have walked 23 miles and ascended 3064m or 10,052ft.
