Hi, this is our Team Sponsor Page for the following people:

Mike Burton (Team Captain), Peter Thompson, Daniel Tolson & Chris Scott.

 

Our team aim to conquer four of the highest peaks in the UK and Ireland within 48 hours in this Four Peaks Challenge. This awe-inspiring challenge sees teams of four (three climbers and a driver) or individuals endure the heights of Ben Nevis, Helvellyn, Snowdon and Carantouhill. Over the 48 hours there is over 1,000 miles to drive and climbs of 14,000 feet to achieve this ultimate and most iconic Spoon Challenge.

 

On Thursday 29 June 2013, up to 40 teams will arrive at Fort William on the shores of Loch Linnhe and Loch Eil, to take part in one of the UK's most exhausting, exhilarating and rewarding charity challenges.

This challenge is run through Wooden Spoon, which is a children's charity founded in 1983 that is dedicated to helping disadvantaged children and young people across the British Isles live happier, richer lives. We partner with the UK rugby community, receiving invaluable support for our activities and the opportunity to raise awareness of the work we do. In doing so, we involve some of rugby's top sporting role models in making a difference in the lives of young people in need.

We proudly comprise over 40 regional volunteer committees, a central national team and over 10,000 members. All regional committees undertake many local fundraising activities and only spend the money raised on projects in their local community.

During our first 30 years, over 600,000 young people benefitted from more than £20 million of charitable support thanks to the efforts of our staff and volunteers. We are proud of our legacy, the work we do, and our ambitious plans for the future.

Wooden Spoon exists to make a positive impact on the lives of disadvantaged children and young people through our commitment to quality charitable work.
