We all need community in times of life Nicki you emulated what friends community mean thank you

Across the UK hundreds of communities are facing the loss of yet another local service, isolating them even further.

Plunkett is a UK-wide charity that helps rural communities to save pubs, shops, farms, woodlands and much more, through community-ownership. With Plunkett's expert guiding hand, communities can not only save services from permanent closure, but they can turn them into thriving and inclusive community-owned assets that keep community at the very heart.

Our Three Peaks Challenge will be raising money that will help fund the wide range of support Plunkett provides to more than 730 communities all over the UK.

With your help we will be able to help more communities build businesses that reduce the risk of isolation and loneliness, that offer much-needed employment, training and volunteering opportunities, that support small local producers.

Whatever you're able to donate, thank you. Every penny really will be helping to make a difference to rural communities everywhere.
