We are going to be climbing Snowdon, or Yr Wyddfa, on Sunday 13th October 2024 in our attempt to raise vital funds for Bassetlaw Hospice!

We will be joined by others also raising funds for the Hospice in the early morning as we leave together in a minibus, with the plan to start walking around 10am. We will be climbing the Pyg Track before returning to Retford on the same day.
