We don’t undertake challenges that often but are climbing Ben Nevis and trying to raise much needed funds for Care for Veterans.

This is whereby we are asked to match the height of  Ben Nevis - 8,810 steps. However, Jude and I have upped the challenge as we already walk/hike a lot and will be undertaking this by climbing our stairs at home.

Andrew has kindly worked out that this equates to 650 flights during the day. I aim to break it down to Blocks of 10 ascents interspersed with a stretchy run/hobble around the garden and Jude will combine a bit of dog-walking as well!

If you are able to donate even a small amount we would be so grateful as will the charity which does a great job in providing rehabilitation services for injured veterans.
