As a baby, a road traffic accident left Bethany permanently paralysed. There have been many challenges for her to face along the way, but Bethany does not let anything stop her. Her dedication and drive as a young volunteer at Back Up are extremely admirable, invaluable to the services for children and young people and testament to her character. A friendly, committed, self-driven and dependable young volunteer, Bethany certainly goes that extra mile to make sure other children and young people are supported. With an understanding for the importance of this vital work, she has also committed lots of her time to fundraising to help ensure this support can continue for many more children and young people affected by spinal cord injury.” Ella, Under 18’s manager at Back Up

Bethany has signed herself up for the Snowdon Push challenge, which is one of Back Up’s toughest fundraising events. It involves teams of between 10 and 16 people aiming to conquer the highest mountain in England and Wales, Mount Snowdon, which is over 3,500 ft high. One member of each team must be a wheelchair user, which means pushing, pulling, climbing and wheeling as a team to reach the summit and back down again, covering approximately eight miles of steep, mixed surfaced terrain. It is no mean feat!
