Story

Thank you so much for visiting our JustGiving page. We are a group of school friends taking on The Welsh 3 Peaks Challenge in June 2021 to raise money in memory of our special friend Naomi (Nom).  

We tragically lost Naomi, one of our best friends in September 2019. Having seen and talked with her the day before, we were still completely unaware of what lay ahead.  

Naomi had an amazing sense of humour, roaring laugh and an honest approach to everything she did. Her kindness and caring nature was genuinely unique. She was an amazing friend, sister, daughter and auntie. After years of tackling mental health issues, Naomi took her own life in 2019.It was a devastating end and we, along with her family and other close friends truly miss her. 

We wanted to organise an epic challenge to allow us time together to remember Nom whilst helping others in a similar situation. So we decided to take part in The Welsh 3 Peaks Challenge in 2021, this is definitely something which will challenge us all, and give us some much needed time away from our busy lives to remember Nom, together.  

We are raising money for SCUFF (Scar Cover up Freedom Fund). SCUFF is a charity helping to fund tattoo cover ups, for those left with self-harm scars. These tattoos can help people move on from the constant reminder of their past, be a part of the healing process and give people confidence to do more with their life.  

Please donate as little or as much as you can to support this charity... and also to motivate eight mums to get moving and train to take on this challenge! We really appreciate everyone's support as we aim to complete the Welsh Three Peaks in less than 24 hours on Saturday 19th June 2021.

“We will always be a ‘man down’ within our group of friends, but if we can support SCUFF to help even one person overcome the scars left behind from self-harm, then we have at least found some good from losing our friend that we loved so much.” 

You can read all about our journey to the final summit on Saturday 19th June 2021 on our Instagram page @nomschallenge

This is for you Nom. 

Much love, Hollie, Katie, Nicola, Claire, Laura, Abigail, Chloe and Faye.
