On Saturday 14th July employees of AtlasFram Group plan to tackle the 3 Peaks Challenge - climbing Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon in just 24 hours.
We've chosen to support 2 charities, Cancer Research and RABI (Royal Agricultural Benevolent Society). You can donate to either of these charities (or both) by clicking on the link below. You'll also see pictures and updates from our training and fundraising.
The participants will be:
Abbie Lyon, Amy Peach, Andrew Merton, Ashley Gilman, Barry Howard (on behalf of ADM), Ed Thomson, Graham Aldrich, Katya Wilkinson, Peter Waite, Tim Styles and Tyrone Campbell-Twells.
There will also be a team of drivers supporting us including Julie Murray, Phil Collins and Richard Anscombe.
This will be a tough challenge to complete and will require lots of training as most of us sit behind desks all day. Please dig deep as we're aiming to raise a massive £5000 for our 2 chosen charities.
In case you were wondering, here's how we plan climb the highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales in just 24 hours. We'll start climbing Ben Nevis at 5pm so that we complete it before it's too dark to see! Then we'll make the 6 hour drive to Scafell Pike in the Lake District so that we begin climbing around 4am. That needs to be completed in 4 hours so that we can drive to the foot of Snowdon for 1pm. We'll then be really up against the clock as we'll have just 4 hours to reach the summit of Snowdon and descend again back to our vehicles by 5pm! That will complete around 25 miles of walking and 10,000 feet of ascent (plus the same of descent).
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 28%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.
Thank you for your support!
