BAE Systems - Three Peaks Charity Challenge · 21 May 2011
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
We can proudly announce that we completed the Challenge below and would like to thank everyone for all contributions towards the charity "Combat Stress".
Not only did we complete but we were the 1st All Ladies Team to finish. We all overcame individual challenges that day but I admire greatly the efforts that Danielle and Dee put into the training and completing the event, in such a short space of time. Just goes to show you can all achieve something out there with a little bit of effort, training and enthusiasm, go on give it a go you might be surprised.
Thanks again
Regards
Christine

BAE Systems Three Peaks Charity Challenge is taking place this year in Wales. The 18.9 mile walk is based around the Horseshoe Pass near Llangollen which offers some challenging climbs (2,150 ft of ascent) and terrain. Chris is already an experienced walker and has been putting Danielle and Dee, who only started long distance walking a month ago, through their paces to condition them to the challenge ahead.
Combat Stress provides specialist support for veterans of war returning home with psychological conditions related to their Service career. This might be depression, anxiety, a phobia or Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). You may not be familiar with this charity, however you may know someone returning from war who at some point in the future sadly may require the help and support of professionals to "Combat their Stress".
So please dig deep, this is a real challenge for Danielle and Dee but nothing compared to our lads and lasses at war!
