Yes that's right I am going to climb the Atlas mountains highest peak. I am over weight, unfit and scared but I am determined to achieve this. Please support HIT and me by donating

From 17–24 September, a dedicated team of 20 hospitality professionals will take on one of North Africa’s greatest natural challenges — the ascent of Mount Toubkal, the highest peak in the Atlas Mountains.

The HIT the Atlas Challenge will push participants both physically and mentally as they trek through rugged terrain and extreme altitudes to raise vital funds for HIT Scotland's scholarship programme.

Our scholarship programme creates life-changing opportunities for individuals to grow their skills, confidence and ambition through hands-on experience, learning from industry leaders and exposure to global best practice.

By supporting HIT the Atlas, you’re helping inspire talent, elevate the industry and make a real difference to people’s lives.
