I’m doing the Three Peaks Challenge for The Grand Appeal with my friend Emma on the 22nd August.

We’d been talking about needing something to aim for the year so when Emma sent me the info about this opportunity it felt like it was meant to be!

We will be doing the challenge over 30 hours with the support of the Grand Appeal. We have been training for a while now and, for those of you that know me well, this is going to be a huge personal challenge but I’m giving it my all.

The Grand Appeal puts Bristol Children's Hospital at the heart of everything they do by providing comfort, care and vital support. They offer families a free, private space to stay, deliver music therapy and play activities for children, and fund cutting-edge equipment and research that helps save lives.

For 30 years, The Grand Appeal has provided 360-degree support to over 100,000 young patients each year, helping them through some of the most difficult times in their lives.
