Story

Thank you for visiting our JustGiving page. Anybody that knows us, will be more used to the three of us partying, than doing something healthy together! But we decided to challenge ourselves, and help raise vital funds in support of Genetic Disease Research at the University of Sheffield. Walking 50km (over 31 miles!!) in a day, through the stunning Peak District, starting at Hope, navigating the tallest peak at Mam Tor, taking on the summit of Win Hill, braving the muddy paths of Ladybower Reservoir, along Bamford and Stanage Edge, before finishing in Sheffield, at the University Arms, for a much needed pint, or three!

Any donations are appreciated to help reach our fundraising goal! In the UK alone, 1 in 25 children is affected by a genetic disorder. Sheffield's research will change the lives of families who are desperately seeking a treatment for their loved-one. By making a gift today you will give hope to families living with the ongoing challenges of a genetic disease.
