Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

The Peak District Copper Challenge is a 25K (16 mile) walk through the peak district at Hathersage /Derwent Valley and has a 9 hour finishing target. 

Managing waste is a critical service across the world and one of which Dunton are a part of in the UK and beyond. Many countries don't have even the basic waste management services and their uncontrolledrubbish heaps are often the breeding grounds for fatal and wide spread diseasesas well as being the cause of extensive environmental decay. 

Waste Aid International are a charity working with communities to address the wastecrisis.
