Cambridge Meridian Academies Trust (CMAT) staff pushed themselves to the limit as they took on the Lake District 10 Peaks challenge on the 10th October to mark the Trust’s 10th anniversary.

The Lake District 10 Peaks Challenge was a one-day event which drew in 11 summits over a walking distance of 17 miles and saw the team encounter difficult terrain, lengthy ascents and steep descents along the way.

Each member of staff walked to raise money and awareness for a particular charity based in the local area of a CMAT academy. The charities include Northamptonshire Mind, Sawtry Foodbank, Opportunity Playgroup, Ely Foodbank, and Wooden Spoon Charity. Any money raised will be split equally between these charities.

We are aiming to raise over £500 and hope that everyone will get behind us and donate to these brilliant causes. Any form of support would be greatly appreciated.

CMAT is at the heart of its local communities, and we want to give back to our communities for the support they have given us by raising money for vital causes which have become more important than ever during these challenging times.
