As adventures go this is my toughest yet.

My name is Thomas Gunnar Perry and for the Sheffield Sick Children’s Trust (Tree Tops) charity I have decided to challenge myself to completing all 214 Wainwrights before I am 10 years old.

Having completed other challenges such as the Three National Peaks at 7 years old and the second highest peak in Macedonia; I needed something to challenge my skills and push my boundaries to the limit.

The 214 challenge will do this by hiking 35,000ft of peaks, foot slogging over 350 miles and enduring all the seasonal weather the lakes can throw at me.

The reason I do this is that I love my sister, and whilst her story is one of success there are thousands of other children and parents who need my help. I push myself because she’s here today due to the special doctors and nurses and Sheffield Children’s Hospital. Without them I would not have my beautiful if not a little annoying older sister.

The Sick Children's Trust provide accommodation for parents with very ill children and enables them to stay at their child's side as much as possible and have a warm bed to go to within the hospital walls.

So this is my special way of saying thank you. I hope you can all help, please spread the word and the love. Thank you all for listening x
