Welcome to the COOMBS Fundraising Page.
The staff, students, parents and friends of Parmiter's School in Garston, Hertfordshire have set themselves a challenge, and are rising to it, literally.
The goal is to scale the three highest mountains in England, Scotland and Wales, (Scafell Pike - 978m, Ben Nevis - 1344m, and Snowdon - 1085m, respectively), over the weekend of 27 to 29 June. For the dedicated, the challenge is to climb all three peaks within a 24 hour period. For the less adventurous (some might say less foolhardy) the challenge is to climb one of the three peaks over the weekend, WE WILL BE CLIMBING SNOWDEN ONLY. Our combined target is to raise £25,000 through sponsorship and donations.
The money raised by the challenge will be used to provide an outside, covered, seating area for the students. However, the school also wishes to raise money to support other young people. Therefore, we will be donating 20% of the money raised to the Teenage Cancer Trust, a charity devoted to improving the lives of teenagers and young adults with cancer.
For more information about the Teenage Cancer Trust please visit their website at www.teenagecancertrust.org.
