My story

Three Mountains, 24 hours, One Challenge - WE DID IT!

I am pleased to say on Sun 6th September 6 brave men crossed the finish line in Llanberis (Snowdon) with minutes to spare in our 24 hour mountain marathon.

If anybody fancies 24 hours of torture expect sleep deprivation, slipping on wet rocks in the dark, 60mph gusts trying to blow u off narrow ledges, the smell of wet boots for 11 hours in a cramped minbus, then this is definitely the perfect challenge for you.

I would like to thank the team for their commitment to the cause and for all the laughs, tantrums, grit and damn right determination to make this challenge the most memorable experience. A big thanks to our driver Peter who doubled up as cook extrordinaire. The most amazing Chilli on Scafell Pike kept us fuelled and unsociable on Snowdon!

Finally, a HUGE thanks to all our Sponsors who have helped to create more opportunities for the invisible children of Africa. We have raised £1400 in total with some money to come - fantastic effort in such a difficult fundraising climate.

Thanks to your generosity, more street children will have the chance to a different path in life.
