6 peaks in 6 weeks! 

That’s right. 6 peaks in 6 weeks. It’s not just a catchy title…

I’m attempting 2 separate challenges that involve climbing 6 different peaks within 6 weeks! 

The first challenge takes place over 24 hours in June, and will involve climbing the 3 highest peaks in the UK: Ben Nevis (Scotland) first, followed by a journey to Scafell Pike (England), before a final ascent up Mount Snowden (Wales) and back to the base, all within 24 hours.  

Less than 6 weeks later, I’ll be doing it all again but for the Yorkshire 3 peaks challenge in July (separate fundraising page for that has been set up if you’re feeling generous!). This challenge involves climbing the 3 highest peaks in Yorkshire within a 12 hour period. That’s 12 hours of constant walking on a 24 mile route, with 1,585m of ascent. 

I’m doing this for Make-A-Wish, and the charity details are below. Your sponsorship will help make a huge difference - I’m doing this in a group with my Abbott colleagues, and so collectively we will be aiming to raise a lot of money for this cause, so please be generous!

Make-A-Wish® UK creates life-changing wishes that revive the childhood that critical illness takes away, bringing light and joy at the darkest of times for a child and their loved ones. But right now, there are 60,000 children in the UK living with a critical condition, and they don’t have the resources to be that light for everyone. Your generous support will help them step closer to achieving their vision: to grant a wish to every eligible child. Together, we have the power to light up the darkness.
