Story

Hi Everyone,

On the 13 July, I will be attempting the 3 peaks, trying to climb the highest mountains in England, Wales and Scotland within 24 hours.

To succeed, I will have to compete each peak in around 3½ hours, to ensure enough travel time between mountains, not exactly a stroll in the park! I have been training since January 2 completing a number of different walks to try and prepare myself for what lies ahead. It is a very difficult challenge so I’m reluctantly accepting the possibility that I may not complete it but I’m going to push myself to the limit trying!! However, yesterday I climbed Snowdon in 3 hours 35 min so it’s looking good!!

I’m raising money for Winston’s Wish, a relatively unknown charity that provides vital support for bereaved children and helps young people re-adjust to life after the death of a parent or sibling. It’s a charity that my family hold close to our hearts so I hope you will be able to support me.

Thanks!
