On Saturday 3rd October, we're taking on our toughest challenge yet...

Climbing and descending Roseberry Topping 24 times in 24 hours.

Known as the "Matterhorn of the North", Roseberry Topping stands proudly above the North Yorkshire landscape. While one climb is a rewarding achievement, we'll be tackling the steep ascent and descent 24 consecutive times—covering approximately 16,000ft (4,900m of elevation), almost half the height of Mount Everest, and around 40 miles on foot. It will test every ounce of our physical and mental resilience.

But every painful step has a purpose.

We're raising £2,000 for the Sporting Influence Foundation to ensure more children can experience the life-changing benefits of sport, regardless of their background, ability or financial circumstances.

Your donation will help us provide:

🏃 Free places at holiday camps and after-school clubs for children facing financial hardship.

♿ Inclusive sporting opportunities for children with SEND through our SportABILITY programme.

👧 Girls' participation projects through Play2EmpowHER, helping build confidence and inspire lifelong participation in sport.

🎟️ Memorable experiences, wellbeing activities and community projects that many children would otherwise never have the chance to enjoy.

Every day we see the difference that sport can make. It builds confidence, improves mental wellbeing, develops friendships and gives children a sense of belonging. Yet too many young people still face barriers that prevent them from taking part.

As a Community Interest Company, much of the Foundation's work is currently made possible through donated time and the dedication of our volunteers. Your support allows us to reach more children, deliver more projects and remove the barriers that stop young people from accessing opportunities.

Twenty-four climbs. Twenty-four descents. Twenty-four hours. One mission.

Every donation, no matter the size, will help us turn an extraordinary physical challenge into lasting opportunities for children across our community.

Please support our challenge and help us ensure that every child has the opportunity to belong, believe and achieve through sport.
