Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As a family, we have been overwhelmed by all the love and support we have had in the last few years. It has inspired us to gather as many people as possible to walk in memory of Rowan and raise some money for a good cause at the same time. 

Today marks three years without Rowan’s light in our lives and in his memory we are planning to complete the ‘Yorkshire Three Peak Challenge.’ In the first year, we walked every day for mindfulness and it feels fitting to mark this third year with this walk. Our provisional date is 20th June 2020.

The Yorkshire Three Peaks route is a 24 miles (38.6km) walk that includes: Pen-y-ghent (694m), Whernside (736m) and Ingleborough (723m) in under 12 hours. Now the record time is 2 hours 29 minutes and 53 seconds but don’t worry we aren’t going for that this year!

These peaks form part of the beautiful Pennine range, and circles the head of the valley of the River Ribble, in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. There will be a small break and celebration at the top of each hill with a shot of vodka (a must!)

Want to walk with us?! For those crazy enough who want to complete the challenge with us, please send me a message and I'll send sign up details.  For those wanting to support us, you can either walk part of the route with us as we will have pub/cafe stops planned en-route OR sponsor us via this JustGiving page. 

What you will need:

  • Walking boots

  • A waterproof jacket & warm clothes

  • A backpack with some water, food, snacks and the very essential shot glass

    Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
