A team from Shoosmiths will soon be taking on the challenge of reaching the summit of Mount Snowdon, which stands at 3,500 feet high. Support us and our charity, Back Up, as we embark on this adventure!

The Snowdon Push is Back Up's toughest, yet most exhilarating fundraising event and tests each and every member to the max. It's an amazing experience that brings together people from all walks of life to work as a team and reach one of the highest points in the British Isles, all whilst raising funds for people with a spinal cord injury and their families. The Push involves teams of between 10 and 16 people aiming to conquer the highest mountain in England and Wales, Mount Snowdon, which is over 3,500 ft high. One member of each team must be a wheelchair user, which means pushing, pulling, climbing and wheeling as a team to reach the summit and back down again, covering approximately eight miles of steep, mixed surfaced terrain.This year were really pushing the boat out again and plan to raise a whopping £65,000 over the weekend. This money will be used to help transform the lives of people affected by spinal cord injury across the UK.

Our team: Denise Stephens, Phil Barnes, Nick Tubb, Hollie Browne, Roula Karam, Holly Baillie, Nomahn Khan, Samantha Gaurd, Alex Haider, Luke Thomas, Krishna  Kacha, Matthew Weller, Dmitry Seregin and James Mayfield
