Story

During this global pandemic, our carers need our support more than ever before, to help them maintain those vital caring roles for loved ones.

Our 'Climbing For Carers' virtual challenge is a fun way of keeping fit during lockdown and also helping us raise those much needed funds to allow us to continue with the physical and emotional support whenever it's needed. Giving carers somewhere to turn to in their hours of need, no matter their age, from 5 to 95.

Keep fit and take on the might of Kilimanjaro, or stay closer to home and complete the National Three Peaks Challenge without ever having to step foot outside your front door.

Ben Nevis Ascent 1310m - stairs to the top 6550

Snowdon Ascent 922m stairs to the top 4610

Scafell Pike Ascent 884m stairs to the top 4420

Total for the Three Peaks Challenge = 3116m stairs to the top 15580

Kilimanjaro Ascent 4983m stairs to the top 24915

(stairs based on average stair height of 20cm as laid out by muchbetteradventures.com)
