Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Connor Ferguson and Ian Reid two local lads from East Belfast came up with an “idea” to raise some much needed funds for an amazing and local charity known as Beyond-The Battlefield.
The charity supports local veteran communities and their families with a particular focus on helping individuals with PTSD. In addition, Beyond the Battlefield also supports its associated problems including: Alcohol/Drug Abuse, Domestic Violence, Relationship & Financial difficulties, Stress, Trauma, Self harm, Suicide and Bereavement.
All services provided from Beyond the Battlefield are delivered by volunteers. This motivates us to endeavour to raise as much funds as possible to enable such vital services to continue.
So what is our idea?
We are going to attempt to dander around our wee country covering 430 miles in 12 days! On day 3 of our wee dander we aim to undertake the 7 peak challenge.
We hope that undertaking this challenge will help to raise awareness and much needed funds for Beyond the Battlefield.
A unique element of this challenge is that we have planned it to coincide with the centenary of Northern Ireland, the 10th birthday of Beyond the Battlefield NI.
