Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am completing the 3 peaks challenge with my brother and some friends on the 27/28 June.
The National Three Peaks Challenge is an event in which participants attempt to climb the highest mountains of Scotland, England & 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 (1,344 m or 4,409 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 26 miles, with a total ascent of 10,000 feet (3,400 m). Driving approximately 460 miles in the process.
I have chosen to raise money for Parkinson's UK as my mother was diagnosed a few years ago with the disease. I feel this charity need help to research the cause, find ways to slow the progression of the disease and to ultimately find a cure.
So please dig deep and donate now.
