Our personal message:

Raising money for NCH, the largest children's charity in the UK, Philip Pascall, Ion Appuhamy, Gary Best, Sean McLachlan, Cyril Gatinot, Stewart Orrell and Rachel Martin will attempt the Haute Route.
http://www.nch.org.uk/

Not content with the challenge of off-piste skiing in resort, on 13 April the team from Balfour Beatty Capital and Haden Building Management will start what is arguably the most famous ski tour in the world. Staying in mountain huts around 3,000 m above sea level, the team will attempt to ski and climb their way from Chamonix to Zermatt during the following 6 days. This is an arduous challenge, not to be undertaken lightly, and is requiring a great deal of personal commitment. Our sponsorship target reflects that.
Please give us your support and dig deeply into your pockets for NCH. Of course donations of any amount will be greatly appreciated.

Please donate online below or fill in the sponsorship forms that are circulating.

Its gives me great pleasure to support the Hard Way Up Club in undertaking the

Haute Route to raise money for NCH.  Both a physically and mentally demanding challenge, I would like to wish the team the best of luck and urge you to give generously.
