Story

William Hands team are aiming to climb West Wycombe Hill as many times as it takes, to reach the same height as Mount Everest.  We aim to reach our virtual summit by Christmas and will conquer ten virtual peaks during our climb.  Starting with West Wycombe Hill, then ending with Mt. Everest.

All money raised will go to the Furniture Makers Charity Step2it campaign to provide funds for workers in the Furniture and Furnishings Industry who are suffering financial hardship as a result of the pandemic.

please help us on our journey with encouragement and send us pictures of you reaching the summits 

Step 2 It is the exciting new fundraising campaign by industry charity The Furniture Makers' Company.Our ambition is to inspire the UK furnishing industry to organise and take part in a sports-based activity or challenge to generate vital funds to help those struggling financially. What's more - every single penny you raise will be matched, effectively doubling your donation. For over 100 years, we have provided financial and practical support to people working in furnishing. Since the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have committed to award up to £1 million in welfare grants to those who had their livelihoods critically impacted by the crisis.
