My story

Massive thanks to everyone who sponsored us, despite a few injuries here and there, some bad traffic and a couple of navigational errors (I blame the compass) we all completed the challenge in under 24 hours. It was a big effort for everyone especially on the peaks where we couldn’t see more than about 15 feet in front of us. I’m sure this money will really help the Hospice, something we couldn’t have achieved without everyone’s support and generosity. Thanks again to everyone who supported us and everyone who took part.

On the 8^th of August myself and Rob Griffin, Adam, Barry and Jonathan Kitto, Tim Stedman and Randall Stoneley will attempting the 3 peaks challenge. For anyone who doesn’t already know, this involves climbing the three largest mountains in Britain (Snowdon, Ben Nevis and Scafell Pike) within 24 hours, climbing one mountain in the pitch black.

We will be raising money for the Mary Stevens Hospice, this organisation depends on events such as this to maintain and expand its vital service as only 18% of its financial requirements are provided by the NHS. It is particularly close to my heart at this time as my granddad was recently diagnosed with cancer and now requires full time care from the hospice. The staff, many of which are volunteers, have been fantastic, taking very good care of him and making this difficult time as comfortable as possible.

Please help us support this organisation by making a donation so the Hospice can continue providing its caring service.
