Story
Niamh (13) has been selected as part of a team to represent Wales in a Girl Guiding Cymru expedition to Adelboden, Switzerland. The Swiss Challenge will involve a series of adventure activities including a demanding overnight mountain hike in the Swiss Alps where her survival skills will be put to the test.
The trip will be an amazing opportunity and Niamh will be physically and emotionally challenged whilst developing confidence, inner strength, independence and resilience.
To prepare for this adventure, Niamh will be facing The Welsh Three Peaks Challenge over three days in April 2019. She will be climbing the peaks of Pen Y Fan (886m), the mighty Cadair Idris (893m) and then onwards and upwards tackling Snowdon (1085m) to complete the challenge.
Niamh has to raise the required funds for Girl Guiding Cymru to make this international trip possible and she has been busy with fundraising ideas and activities. Niamh would also like to donate 25% of the proceeds to Giving To Pink, a breast cancer charity very close to her family's heart (www.givingtopink.cwmtaf.wales).
Training starts now and we will keep you updated with Niamh's progress. We would be extremely grateful for any support you are able to give.
Thanks so much.
