Story
So on the 14th September, ten of us from Howarth Timber & Building Supplies in Harrogate (& a few stragglers!) Have decided to do something very stupid & give the 'Yorkshire Three Peaks' a go!
None of us are walkers & you can count on one hand the amount of cardio-vascular activity that we have done over the past 10 years!
Why do we want to put our bodies through one of the most notoriously toughest treks out there I hear you say? Well, we have just recently twinned up with our new charity partner - Andys Man Club, & we want to do all that we can to support this amazing charity. We all hear about stories of men struggling & not dealing with mental health, well these guys are all about easing that pressure & letting us all know that it is OK to talk!
This will not only be a test physically but mentally too. It will all be about how we can help & motivate each other or maybe even carry us across the finish line. Hopefully we can fight the tears & pain to ensure that we can complete the gruelling 26miles & get back to work on the Monday!
To add pressure, our friends at Regatta have kindly donated us our kit so we all look the part as we turf our bodies across the finest parts of Yorkshire.
Please donate all that you can, no matter how big or small! Each donation will be greatly appreciated!
⚫ Suicide is the biggest killer of men under 54
⚫ 4,900 men take their own lives each year
⚫ That’s 12 every day, 1 every 2 hours
Andy’s Man Club is a cause that’s making a real difference in the lives of men across the UK.
Every Monday evening, in over 240 locations nationwide, men come together to talk, listen, and support one another in a safe, non-judgmental space. Andy’s Man Club exists to break the stigma around men’s mental health and to remind us all that “It’s okay to talk.”
Stay tuned to see all the things that we'll be doing throughout the next few years to help support this wonderful charity. #ITSOKAYTOTALK
