Story

In partnership with Crystal, Disability Snowsport UK is challenging skiers and boarders to ski the equivalent distance from London to Pyeongchang. The total distance is 5,560 miles.  

In March 2018 the Paralympics will take place in Pyeongchang South Korea between 9th and 18th March. 

A team of ski and snowboard athletes will be representing Great Britain in snowsports, all of these athletes are supported by Disability Snowsport UK. Disability Snowsport UK is a charity which changes and enhances lives through inclusive participation in snowsports. 

Our elite Paralympic skiers will take to the slopes in South Korea and we have high hopes for medals building on the five won in Sochi 2014!

For all of our supporters who can't make it out to Pyeongchang we're running our own campaign - to see who can ski the equivalent distance from London to Pyeongchang.

To enter we are asking for a donation of £5.00 or more via our JustGiving page.  You will need to download the Crystal app (or similar) and start tracking your miles as you ski or snowboard over the winter season.

We will highlight some of our top participants as the miles start to come in - please send a screenshot of your total miles on your app and post it on our Facebook events page or send it via email: fundraising@disabilitysnowsport.org.uk

You can also keep up to date on our twitter @dsuksnowsport

We are hoping you will all help us get the message of our campaign out there by re-tweeting and sharing our posts.

As a thank you for your continued support every person taking part will be entered in to our prize draw for a selection of goods.
