With a collective 35 plus years of experience working at Action for Children, our team know first hand the impact of the amazing work they do. In 20024-2025, Action for Children reached and improved the lives of 551,400 people across the UK. With a range of services from Family Support, Youth Homeless, Residential Short Breaks, Children's Homes including Disabled Children and Young People, Criminally Exploited Children, Support within Schools, Young Carers and many more, Action for Children services are a lifeline to so many families, children and young people. None of this would be possible without the support of our wonderful donors who are crucial to the organisation and the families it supports. This is why I have chosen to raise funds to help improve the lives of some of the most vulnerable families, children and young people in Scotland.

We'll be trekking by torchlight through the night to reach the summit of Ben Nevis, by dawn. With the moon as my backdrop, We'll climb the highest mountain in the UK through the night. We'll reach the summit by dawn. And if we're lucky, we might just see the sunrise over the stunning Scottish Highlands.

Taking part in this challenge is not only an incredible personal achievement but we'll also be helping to give vulnerable children a safe and happy childhood. Thank you for your support!
