Story

On 7th June 2023 my beautiful husband lost his life climbing. As part of the rescue effort, North East Wales Search And Rescue worked tirelessly over a number of hours trying to save him. This fundraiser is an opportunity for myself, Bryn, and Silver to say thank you.

Along with my trusty steeds Matt (Brother from another Mother and genius behind The Hustle and Dirtbag Entertainment) Rachel (European Bovine extraordinaire and general badass Mummy) and hopefully other mental companions, On the anniversary of our families life being indescribably changed forever, I am taking on my hardest physical challenge yet; the Welsh 15 Peaks… as fast as I can!

“In order to complete the Welsh 3000s Challenge you are required to have been at the top of all 15 of the mountains over 3000 ft in Wales within the space of 24 hours, without using any form of transport.

The length is about 24 miles, but the walks to the start point and down from the finish point can take it to over 30 miles in total.”

NEWSAR volunteers provide the Police, Ambulance Service and local communities of North East Wales with a highly competent search and rescue capability that can be deployed swiftly, safely and effectively 24 hours a day, 365 days per year. NEWSAR does not receive any Government funding, and they are the most beautiful bunch I have ever had the pleasure to meet.
