Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
On the 31st July 2019, a team of 12 people will be climbing the 3 biggest mountains in the UK in under 24 hours. From here you can support our team and donate to help your friends/family members hit the magical goal of £5000 for The Huntington's Disease Association Bristol Branch. Money raised will be used to support people in the South West affected by Huntington's Disease and a proportion will go towards research for a cure.
We have a mixed group of 10 people climbing the mountains: Lesley Dufty, Mark Bywater, Wayne Jenkins, Kim Lewis, Matt Rees, Lee Hopton, Aiden Bywater, Jon Earl, Sara Bywater, and Danny Madocks are currently confirmed and if you'd like to join them, email mark.bywater@me.com.
National Three Peaks Challenge:
The National Three Peaks Challenge is an event in which participants attempt to climb the highest mountains of England, Scotland and Wales within 24 hours. Walkers climb each peak in turn, and are driven from the foot of one mountain to the next. The three peaks are:
- Ben Nevis / Beinn Nibheis (1,345 m or 4,413 ft), the highest mountain in Scotland
- Scafell Pike (978 m or 3,209 ft), the highest mountain in England
- Snowdon / Yr Wyddfa (1,085 m or 3,560 ft), the highest mountain in Wales
The total distance walked is estimated at 42 kilometres (26 mi) or 44 km (27 mi),[2] with a total ascent of 9,800 feet (3,000 m).
