"Wow! Ben's actually doing exercise? Well I'll be damned!"
Yes, you read correctly :-) This year I am taking on the Three Peaks Challenge in June 2023 to raise money for Gympanzees.
This includes taking on the tallest mountains in each country of Britain within a 24-hour period. To put this into perspective, I've never climbed a single mountain before, let alone the 3 tallest ones within 24 hours! Oh, and did I mention I've always hated walking?
So if you can, please consider donating - I'll keep you all updated on my training, the gruelling journey (it involves an unheavenly amount of driving across 2 days) and of course the trek itself!
Let me know which mountain you think I should do in the dark...
A bit about Gympanzees:
There are currently around 66,000 disabled children and young people living within an hr of Bristol and a huge 77% are unable to access mainstream leisure facilities. This can often lead to families becoming very isolated. Gympanzees want to change that.
Their mission is to build a permanent, state-of-the-art leisure facility that will be completely inclusive and open 364 days a year meaning that all children can play, keep fit and have the social experiences that they deserve.
Your donations will enable Gympanzees to keep pushing forward, moving ever closer to a permanent home. Thanks for your support!
