My story

Ok The Three peaks Challenge has been done! ;0)

Our fundraiser was climbing the 3 highest peaks respectively in Scotland, England and Wales within 24 hours.
5 team members did this gruelling challenge on my behalf - my husband Gary Witts, brother-in-law Steve Rock and our friends Matthew Piercy, Alan Carter and Keren Millea. They were in a team of 8 and accompanying them was our friend Creighton Varney who was the designated driver!

They started Ben Nevis at 5pm on Sunday 6th July and were down by 10.20....just 20 mins later then the planned time.

Then came Scafell Pike.....(Oh dear.).......Started at 4.50 am. Extremely heavy rain and fog/mist made visability really poor.....and the team got a fraction lost. This was tricky and after 3 hours they were back on track. By this time Gary had hurt his knee and was limping.... they came down at 11.20am.
Lastly Snowdon at 5pm back down at 10pm to end the walk......very sore achey joints a few blisters and hubbie with a limp.Everyone suffering from severe tiredness but really happy to have achieved it as a team ;0) !!!

Thank-you so much to everyone that has donated to this charity. We did really well and Brain Tumour Action are very grateful for the money raised. I will continue to try and raise awareness into this awful illness that is currently not well known/publicized. With Kindest regards, Nicole xxx
