We did it! Our two xoserve teams completed the Three Peaks Challenge (to climb the three highest peaks in Scotland, England and Wales, all within 24 hours). We did really well again, finishing 2nd and 3rd out of 27 teams, in times of 20 hours 43 minutes, and 22 hours 39 minutes. This was down to the extremely high levels of commitment the teams put in, and also the fantastic efforts of the Support Crew ensuring the teams were fed and as rested as possible! The reason we did all of this was to generate support for the British Red Cross. So thank you to all of you that have sponsored us, it means a lot, and we've still got more to come in, so hopefully we can go on to record another big total! This year, the event is taking place in order to raise funds for the British Red Cross; The British Red Cross helps people in crisis, whoever and wherever they are. They are part of a global voluntary network, responding to conflicts, natural disasters and individual emergencies. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: British Red Cross gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
