Story
The Challenge
The Three Peaks, described as one of the UK's ultimate challenges, requires climbers to reach the top of the three highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales in as close to 24 hours as possible.
Staff from across UKTI - marathon runners and beginners, from their mid-20s to mid-60s are preparing to ‘Hit the Peaks Running’ and do just that on August 30th. We need your help!
The Cause
Ten million children die every year before their fifth birthday. Most die needlessly from illnesses we can prevent or treat. In the 21st century, that's just wrong. Save the Children work to change this.
The three peaks challenge team aims to raise as much money as possible to supply the simple solutions— vaccinations, mosquito nets and clean water - that can make the difference between a child's life and death. Please consider sponsoring us.
The difference
A pound a peak ,or more if you can, will make a real difference to some of the poorest and most neglected children. We aim to raise between £5000 and £10000. That means 500—1000 children’s lives we can all help save.
