Raising money for

The Donna Louise Children's Hospice Trust

Charity Registration No. 1075597

The Donna Louise Children's Hospice Trust provides respite for children with life threatening conditions and support for the whole family at the hospice and in their own home. Our hospice called Treetops, is based in Trentham, on the outskirts of Stoke-on-Trent. Here we provide respite and end of life care for children from all over Staffordshire and South Cheshire that are between the ages of 0 and 19 years and have a life-threatening illness. We provide a safe, caring environment where children and families can truly feel at home.

A community nursing team provide respite and end of life care to children and families within their own homes.

Currently the Trust cares for 160 children from South Cheshire and Staffordshire. Its annual running costs of £2 million are obtained mainly from public donations.

My story

Each year the employees of Gladman, along with their friends and family, undertake the Gladman Challenge. These challenges have, in the past, raised much needed funds for our chosen charity, the Donna Louise Trust.

In June 2008 they will be undertaking their toughest trial yet - “The Gladman Munro Challenge”.

The Munros are all the 284 mountains higher than 3,000 feet (914.7m), first catalogued by Sir Hugh Munro.

The Munros are susceptible to intense weather conditions. Even in the middle of summer conditions can be atrocious; thick fog, driving rain and freezing summit temperatures are not unusual.

Gladman’s Munro team will be attempting seven of these mountains over just two days, spending the nights camping in the hills.
Why seven peaks? The names on the list below may give you a clue:

Geal Charn (917m), overlooking theDrumochterPass
Carn Liath (975m), the smallest of the Beinn a' Ghlo group near Blair Atholl
Aonach Air Chrith (1021m), part of the South Glen Sheil Ridge
Druim Shionnach (987m), also on the South Glen Sheil Ridge
Creag a' Mhaim (947m) the most easterly and traditionally the first climbed of the seven Munros on the South Glen Sheil Ridge
Am Bodach (1032m), in the heart of the Mamores, part of the Ring of Steall
Na Gruagaichean (1056m), also in the Mamores

This is a colossal task that will require the highest levels of preparation, organisation and, most importantly, team work.

Our team are confident we will rise to the challenge and all the support we get will push us further!
