Story
Everesting Roseberry Topping!
With an unprecedented school year drawing to a close, Peter and I wanted to set ourselves a challenge and raise money to give back to those children who need it the most.
On July 2nd 2021, we will embark on a monumental mission to conquer Mount Everest right here in Teesside. To equal the dizzying heights of the summit, we will be climbing Roseberry Topping a whopping 29 times in less than 24 hours.
Alarmingly, the North East has the second highest rate of child poverty in the UK at 37%; this is equivalent to 11 children in a classroom of 30. As teachers, this is something that really hits home every single day. We have chosen the charity 'Cash for Kids', so every penny that we raise stays local, therefore you can be sure that your support will directly benefit children living in our region.
Donations of any size can be life changing.
Fancy a challenge yourself? Join us for 1 of the 29 legs of the journey and be part of something amazing. Tea, coffee or biscuits would be much appreciated!
Start Time: Friday 2nd July at 7:00pm.
Estimated finishing time: Saturday 3rd June, post 3:00pm.
Cash for Kids Information:
Metro Radio Cash for Kids is a grant-giving charity that offers a helping hand to those who need it most, making a difference to young people across the North East. We support children from birth up to and including 18 years old who are vulnerable, come from disadvantaged backgrounds or are living with an illness or disability. We also provide grants to many other charities, organisations and community groups, funding much-needed services and life-saving equipment across our area.

3 years agoWe did it! 🙌🏻 I’m sure that Pete will agree with me in saying that was the toughest challenge we’ve ever done in our lives, what a monumental effort. Personally have to thank Pete for keeping me going throughout it all. What a man! 🙌🏻 But thank you to each and everyone one of you that has donated, supported and shared what we have done. It’s been an incredible team effort. Myself and Pete could not be more grateful for everything. We’ve raised an incredible amount for a wonderful charity, and that’s down to all of you! 🙌🏻❤️

3 years ago🚨Change Of Date - Covid!🚨 Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are now having to push back our Everesting Challenge to Friday 23rd July into Saturday 24th July. We’re absolutely gutted that we can’t get started this weekend, as we were feeling really positive in preparation for the weekend. Thank you all for your patience and understanding and hope to see you all on the new date. Please share if you or anyone else were going to be coming along this weekend! ☺️

3 years agoFirst training session today up at Roseberry Topping - mainly to plan our route ready for the big day! We went up and down 6 times today in just over 3 hours and 30 minutes, which is somewhere near to our "race pace". It's fair to say that Pete faired much better than myself today, he absolutely smashed it this morning! What a machine! I'm hoping that he will carry me on his back for a few of the legs on the day! Thank you all so much for the donations so far, we hugely appreciate them!
