My story

 

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

On the 5th July 2009, me (Dan), Alex, Farms (James), Beas (Anthony) and Pete are setting off to climb the 3 peaks of Scotland, England and Wales. We will be attempting to climb Ben Nevis (1344m), Scafell Pike (978m) and Snowdon (1085m). The trick is, we hope to do it within a 24 hr period. We will start late in the afternoon of the Sunday and aim to complete it by the same time the following day, the Monday. This is going to involve a lot of walking and driving and not a huge amount of sleep. It is certainly not going to be easy, especially for a group who do not have a lot of experience of hill walking. What we can promise is determination and commitment.

We have chosen Home-Start UK as a charity to raise money for as it is a charity which really makes a differnece to local people, offering them real help and support at times when they most need it. Amy (Dan's wife) works with the charity through her job as a Health Visitor on the Wirral, which will benefit from the money and is only too aware of the difference this charity makes to families. The help is financial and practical.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Home-Start UK gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now!
