Story
A Child Of Mine is an amazing charity that is there to support families after the most unimaginable loss, after a baby or child has died.
They support families with emotional support, practical information and guidance.
Being a small local charity, they depend on fundraising to be able to keep running workshops and 1-2-1 support for bereaved parents.
Following a successful fundraising challenge in 2018 where we (Rob Mackley and Steve Cranston) completed the 3 Peak in 24 Hours Challenge, we decided to up our game this year and attempt an even more gruelling challenge.
This time we're attempting to summit 12 of the highest Peaks in England. Unlike the 3 Peak Challenge, there is no driving involved. This is a none stop trek across the Peak District that covers the distance of a full marathon and has a total ascent of over 4 Kilometers (that's half the height of Mount Everest). We're planning to start the challenge, which will take around 18 hours, at 6am on Monday 19th August.
We've set ourselves a fundraising goal of £2000 so any support of donations would be gratefully appreciated.
