For my 21st birthday a group of friends from university and I will be attempting to complete the National 3 peaks challenge; to climb Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon within 24 hours. We will be starting at Ben Nevis at 5:00PM with the goal of finishing 24 hours later at Snowdon.

We will be raising money for British Heart Foundation - a cause that means a lot to me, as a number of the men in the older generations of my family have been diagnosed with heart conditions, with my grandfather dying from a heart-attack.

The BHF has helped halve the number of people dying from heart and circulatory disease in the UK but sadly every day hundreds of people lose their lives. It's only thanks to support from people like us that the BHF can create new treatments and discover new cures. £24 could pay for two hours of research by an early career scientist, but every pound helps so please give what you can to help us hit our target.

Your donations are greatly appreciated, thank you!
