Story

That's right, we are scaling the three highest peaks of Scotland (Ben Nevis), England (Scafell Pike) and Wales (Snowdon) - all within 24 hours! The Three Peaks challenge involves a total hiking distance of 37km (23 miles) and a total ascent of 3064 metres - plus over 450 miles of driving added into the mix. We plan to raise as much money in aid of The Stroke Association !

Why the Stroke Association? Cammy had an Ischaemic stroke ten years ago in November 2013 whilst playing football (Aged 27) as Captain for Troon Football Club against local rivals Kilwinning Rangers FC. He received incredible support to help him navigate getting back to as much day to day life as possible from Stroke Association.

Two thirds of stroke survivors find themselves living with a disability, and 40% of survivors experience anxiety and depression. There is hope however, thanks to the unique approach from the Stroke Association to help with the emotional, practical and financial implications of having a stroke.

Our team of walkers aiming to conquer the three peaks are :

- Cammy McKinnell

- Jonny Watt

- Colin Fowler

- Neil Sanderson

- Scott Coulter

- Pam Coulter

- Fiona Heggie

- Graeme Neagle

- Gemma Fraser

- Martin Fraser

Our dedicated driving team is as follows, and we could not do it without them :

- Laura McKinnell

- Kirsty Fowler

Thank you in advance for your support & generosity!
