British Gas Yorkshire Dales 3 peak challenge · 5 October 2018

The AGS foundation is a grant making charitable foundation (Registered charity number 1173076). Our objects: The relief of those in need by reason of mental and/or physical disability and/or long-term illness in such ways as the charity trustees in their discretion think fit. Secondly, the promotion of equal rights for disabled people and to advance such charitable purposes. We primarily achieve this by: 1: Organising genuine challenges that are expeditionary in nature undertaken by members of the disabled community providing focus, mentoring and positive messaging within and externally from the disabled community. 2: Providing financial support to members of the disabled community on successful completion of a grant application process to support the applicant; participate in sporting or expeditionary challenges, gain qualifications towards meaningful occupation, live independently and meet the additional costs of medical care as a result if disability.

Story

Welcome and thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!

In October 2018 I am taking on the Yorkshire Dales 3 Peaks challenge alongside  7 colleagues from British Gas to raise money for the Adaptive Grand Slam Charity (AGS). The route is 24 miles (38.6km), and includes 1585m (5200ft) of ascent and takes on the peaks of Pen-y-ghent (694m), Whernside (736m), and Ingleborough (723m) in under 12 hours!

The AGS Foundation provides relief to both ex military personnel and civilians in need by reason of physical and/or mental disability or long term illness and promotes equality and diversity in disability. Our “Challenging Disability” network provides a variety of resource from 1-2-1 mentoring to climbing the highest mountains. 

I was medically discharged from the Royal Navy having injured my back and both of my knees which cut my career short and this is why I've chosen to support this charity.
