Story

We're taking our intrepid supporters to the Lake District for We Love MCR Charity's 5th annual outdoor fundraising challenge! Test yourself, and join us!

The 'Mountain Challenge' is a strenuous challenge taking on the Langdale Horseshoe, requiring a good level of physical fitness, and will involve approximately 7hrs of walking & climbing across 20miles. Last year we created a second challenge option that is more accessible for less experienced walkers with a lower risk of non-completion, whilst still being physically demanding - we've brought it back! This 'Hike + Lake Challenge' is also a physically demanding 10km hike along Gummers Howe, and then a subsequent 6km paddle across Lake Windermere, estimated at around 4.5hrs.

There are limited places for each, and one may sell out before the other - but all participants will meet up afterwards for drinks and a barbecue at Ghyll Head Outdoor Activity centre, so there will be a collective celebration no matter which challenge you - or your colleagues - take on! We'll see you in the Lakes...
