The Highfield Company Welsh Three Peaks Challenge -
Thursday 20th / Friday 21st October
The Welsh Three Peaks Challenge, lesser known than the
National or Yorkshire Challenges, takes in the three highest peaks of Wales: Snowdon in the North, Cadair Idris in mid-Wales, and Pen y Fan in the South.
The Welsh Three Peaks includes a total walking distance of
17 miles (27.4km) and an ascent of around 1500 metres (4920ft).
A team of five from The Highfield Company will be undertaking the Challenge to raise funds for the Rainbow Centre this October.
The Rainbow Centre in Fareham is a charity supporting
children with Cerebral Palsy and adults affected by strokes, Parkinson’s,
Multiple Sclerosis and head injuries. They are the point of excellence
for Conductive Education (CE) in the South of England which is a unique
learning system helping children and adults overcome their physical limitations enabling them to lead more independent lives. As the only dedicated centre in the region families and individuals travel from across the South to access this unique service.
