Keith and Nikkola are heading off to spend 3 days trekking and 3 nights sleeping out in the Arctic Circle at the end of January.

On 23rd January 2026 we will be heading to the north of Finland for a 65km trek over 3 days in temperatures as low as -40C. We will be part of a small group supervised by the fantastic Lee Peyton from Breaking Strain and will spend 3 days sleeping out in the Arctic circle, pulling all of our own provisions on sleds. We are doing this not just because it is a once in a lifetime opportunity, but to raise money for our wee charity The Breakfast Bothy which provides essential supplies and food to the homeless community in Edinburgh.

Every penny donated will go to the charity, with all costs covered already - so your kindness will directly benefit those who have no choice about where they sleep and lack any real support. At this time of year we are seeing a huge uplift in demand at the breakfast bothy, with food, warm clothing, tents and sleeping bags.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
