Story

 

The National Three Peaks walk involves climbing the highest mountains in England, Scotland and Wales.

These are Scafell Pike, Ben Nevis and Snowdon respectively.


The team are challenging themselves to complete the challenge in 24 hours to help raise funds for Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity who support families who face bigger challenges every day.


We believe the charity we have chosen to be a very worthwhile cause and it means something to us all to be able to help those families who have a child in their family with a life threatening illness.

 

“When your world is turned upside down by having a child who is ill, sometimes you just need someone you can rely on – I have always been able to rely on Rainbow’s Support”
Mother
