Every year, DSD organises a sporting event to support a charity. This year, we've decided to tackle the Yorkshire 3 peaks challenge!

The Yorkshire Three Peaks route is 24 miles (38.6km), and includes 1585m (5200ft) of ascent.

The Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge takes on the peaks of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough, usually in this order, and in under 12 hours.

The walk will take place on September 8th . 

It's going to be a long and hard walk so we've already started training! We've done a 19km walk in about 5 hours on July 14th in Wales, climbing Pen y Fan and the surrounding peaks.  

Cure Leukaemia helps blood cancer patients to access pioneering drug and transplant treatments by funding a network of specialist research nurses across the UK. Without these nurses, to ensure patients are monitored and cared for, clinical trials of these new treatments would not run and patients, that have exhausted standard treatment options, would miss out on potentially lifesaving therapies. Every penny raised for Cure Leukaemia helps save lives and also hastens global progress towards the eradication of all forms of blood cancer.
