10 colleagues from Red Kite Learning Trust are taking on this challenge for St Michaels Hospice

Myself, Catie Bradbury, Richard Sheriff, Steve Howell, Amanda Thornton-Jones, Neil Renton, Tom Stephen, Jake Kempton, Liz Edwards & Tim Milburn.

We are taking on the Yorkshire Three Peaks, a 25-mile route in the Yorkshire Dales, including summiting the trio of peaks - Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-Y-Ghent in 12 hours, for our colleague Nivea who lost her husband Tom this year quite suddenly. Tom died in February after a short illness. He is much missed by his family and friends. He was a very contented man.

Tom spent the last week of his life at St Michael’s hospice and this meant his family could spend precious time with him. St Michael’s Hospice is a truly special place, where Tom received exceptional, attentive care from all the staff. Tom’s family will be eternally grateful.
