We enable people with learning disabilities to to be heard and to feel valued.

Story

This fantastic charity delivers interactive services to over 200 people every week, to do this they need funding support. For 30 years Us in a Bus have been making life better for people with profound learning disabilities and complex needs... we want to play our part. 

So we have decided that we will climb mountains, three  to be precise! This is a tough but exciting challenge, we are determined to give it our best efforts and are really grateful for your support. 

Individually we have undertaken a variety of challenges in the past; climbing Kilimanjaro, running marathons, fire-walking, to name a few. Hopefully these experiences, combined with our rigorous training will prepare us for what lies ahead! Two things we can be certain of, is that it will be memorable and supporting a hugely deserving charity. 

Starting at Ben Nevis, we will climb 1345 metres, then jump in the van overnight to Scafell Pike ascending another 978 metres. We will then be back in the van to our final destination of Snowdon for a climb of 1085 metres. Each mountain will take 4-6 hours, we will be supported throughout our experience by the brilliant team at Raw Adventures. 

Thank you so much for supporting us, it really does make all the difference. 

Doug, Victoria, Alex, Carol & Helen.
